Talking to the media at Sukkur airport, Khan said the government came into power through NRO and tried to hide its theft of billions of rupees. “The Supreme Court has issued contempt of court notice to the prime minister, because he did not fulfill his responsibilities.”
Khan stated that only the Constitution is supreme and not the parliament. “If the parliament starts providing justice, then the courts should be shut down… Parliament has its own responsibilities, the courts have their own,” he said.
Reiterating his party’s support for the judiciary, Khan said that PTI is standing with the chief justice and the Supreme Court.
Khan also dispelled rumours about forming an alliance with former dictator Pervaiz Musharraf’s party All Pakistan Muslim League (APML). “We are not ready for any alliances,” he stated.
The party chairman also said that the only way to bring the country out of the “quicksand” was by holding early elections.
