Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Zartaj Gul claimed on Wednesday that Imran Khan had directed negotiations with all political parties by granting full authority to a specially formed committee.
Speaking on Samaa TV programme "Nadeem Malik Live", Gul said: "I recently attended a jail trial at Adiala jail four days back. I met the PTI founder after a long time. The trial, which lasted nearly seven hours, involved detailed discussions on the political and legal challenges faced by the party."
Gul asserted: "Imran Khan expressed deep sorrow over the loss of PTI workers and emphasised the need for legal experts to handle specific matters. A committee comprising Omar Ayub, Hamid Raza, Salman Akram Raja, and Asad Qaiser was subsequently formed."
"The PTI founder gave Omar Ayub, the authority to manage political affairs and empowered the negotiation committee to independently decide with whom and how to engage," she said.
Gul criticised the prevailing political environment, stating, "Bullying politics will not work anymore. The government must show a big heart and seriousness. Despite facing additional legal cases, Imran Khan maintained his belief in dialogue."
