Information Minister Atta Tarar on Monday said that the government will move a case to ban Imran Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) party.
This decision comes on the heels of relief given to the PTI by the top court in the reserved seats case as well as to the party chief in the Iddat case.
Speaking during a press conference in Islamabad, Tarar said that if the country is to move in a forward direction, it cannot do so with PTI’s existence.
“In view of the foreign funding case, May 9 riots, and the cipher episode as well as the resolution passed in the US, we believe that there is very credible evidence present to have the PTI banned,” he said.
The information minister added that the government would also submit a review petition before the Supreme Court of Pakistan against its verdict last week which declared that PTI would be eligible for reserved seats for women and minorities.
