Place my name on ECL, says Imran Khan

• “The interior minister is involved in land grabbing,” he said.
• “They are afraid of the ECL’s name,” he said.
• The idol of fear made a human slave, he said.

LAHORE: Pakistan Tehreek e Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Sunday asked the government to place his name on the Exit Control List (ECL) as he did not want to go abroad.

“They are afraid of the ECL’s name,” he said addressing the reception ceremony at Zaman Park, Lahore, in honour of the PTI workers and leaders who surrendered themselves before police under the Jail Bharo Tehreek.

The former prime minister said the proceeding of Toshakhana case should be live broadcasted. He said the interior ministry was itself saying that there were security concerns regarding Imran Khan.

He said Pakistan would not need debt, if the two families brought their money into it. The idol of fear made a human slave, he said.

Imran Khan said Pakistan was being humiliated all over the world, nobody was giving it loan. The world knew that the biggest robbers were in power.

“The interior minister is involved in land grabbing and murder activities. Asif Zardari is a known corrupt. Murtaza Bhutto’s family blames Zardari of Murtaza’s murder. The NAB had to punish Shehbaz Sharif in Rs8 billion money laundering case. In the FIA case of Rs16 billion he was to be punished.

“Former COAS general (retd) Bajwa protected Shehbaz and made him prime minister. The crime minister is asking for money abroad but people are rejecting him. It is the worst time for Pakistan, the economy is sinking

“The country must go into default when thieves like them will be in power,” he said.

He said the residents of Kufa knew that Hazrat Hussain (RA) was on the right path, but they remained silent and let the oppression happen.

Pointing towards Nawaz Sharif, he said the absconder was controlling the country while sitting in London. He was deciding from London that who the army chief would be.
