LAHORE: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan has blasted the police action against party’s president Pervaiz Elahi, terming an illegal raid carried out by police on his home, with no regard for the presence of women and family members.
“Strongly condemn the illegal raid on Pervez Elahi’s home with no respect to the women and family members present,” PTI chief Imran Khan tweeted past midnight on Saturday.
Strongly condemn the illegal raid on Pervez Elahi’s home with no respect to the women & family mbrs present. We are seeing the dismantling of democracy in Pak before our eyes. There is no respect for Constitution, SC verdicts, or fundamental rights of the ppl – only law of jungle

laundering Sharif & Zardari families in this manner? Enough is enough. Tomorrow I will give roadmap to our nation on how to stand up against this destruction of our Constitution & democracy.

Imran Khan asserted that the Constitution, Supreme Court’s verdicts, and fundamental rights of the people are being disrespected, and the law of the jungle is being imposed.
Khan declared that he will give the country a strategy for preventing the abolition of Pakistan’s democracy and constitution today.
Pervaiz Elahi’s home on Zahoor Elahi Road in Lahore was searched on Friday night by the Anti-Corruption Establishment (ACE) team and a sizable presence of Punjab Police. Pervaiz Elahi is the president of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), and was previously the chief minister of Punjab.
