Govt trying to break Khan's spirit, but it can't, says PTI's Sheikh

The Sindh chapter of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf has strongly condemned the passage of 26th Constitutional Amendment which it claimed was a result of "kidnapping for vote, harassment and coercion against MPs and their families."

While addressing a press conference at Insaf House on Friday, PTI Sindh President Haleem Adil Sheikh expressed serious concern for party founder Imran Khan, accusing the government of "inhumane treatment" in jail.

He further stated that Khan, a prominent leader in the Islamic world and former prime minister, has been denied access to basic facilities such as electricity, newspapers, books, and food, in jail violating his rights as a prisoner.

"This is an attempt to break Khan's spirit, but he remains resilient," Sheikh said at the press conference where he was flanked by PTI Sindh General Secretary Advocate Ali Palh, Karachi General Secretary Arsalan Khalid, Dr Masroor Siyal, Jamal Siddique, and other senior party members.

He heaped praise on Khan for being a steadfast leader who would not surrender before oppression. "If pushed, we will come forward with no way back; our families will hold our funeral prayers in absentia if needed," he said while warning the government.

Sheikh urged PTI supporters to unite against these injustices, calling for a joint protest against political oppression across the country.
