‘Don't have a problem with Pakistan army chief,' Imran says
Former Pakistan Premier Imran Khan has told media he does not 'have a problem' with the country's army chief but accused Chief of Army Staff General Asim Munir of trying to stop him from returning to power.
'I have no problem with him, but he seems to have a problem with me,' Imran Khan told media on Saturday days after the civilian government said it will use a controversial army law to try supporters of his Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party involved in damaging military installations.
'I have not done anything to antagonise the pakistan army chief, but there is something he has against me which I do not know,' the PTI Chairman said a week after he blamed General Munir of ordering his arrest.
The 70-year-old leader, speaking from his residence in the eastern city of Lahore, accused the police of arresting 7,500 protestors believed to be from his party. Imran Khan urged his supporters to remain peaceful in case he is arrested again, adding that the government led by Premier Shehbaz Sharif will use instances of violence to launch a crackdown on the opposition activists and leaders.
