Jamaat-e-Islami’s (JI) Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Professor Muhammad Ibrahim Khan slammed Imran Khan and Tahirul Qadri’s long marches, saying both leaders were performing to a given script.
“Invisible forces are behind the performances of Imran Khan and Tahirul Qadri, while Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif is taking shelter behind the armed forces,” he said, while talking to the media at the residence of former MPA Arshad Khan in Charsadda on Thursday.
Ibrahim said although his party supported the ideas of transparent polls and an independent election commission, it was against the brand of agitation shown by PTI and PAT. It paved the way for undemocratic forces, he added.
Ibrahim opposed their demands for the prime minister’s resignation and the dissolution of the Parliament. The professor said not only the opposition, but most of PTI’s leadership was against the dissolution of the K-P Assembly.

The only invisible force acting behind the scene is known to many people in Pakistn but they hesitate to point out them in public . These forces failed to capture Islamabad from the RED MOSQUE and now using their political wing for this perpose .
Isnt it obvious? The moment they release Mushy everything will magically come back to normal.
its role of governament to calm down the situation, serious efforts are required by PMLN otherwise army would have to intervene
to me, "public" is the invisible force which governament cannot see
They would have contacted JI, if there would be any third element either army or saudia/US ..........
