Rawalpindi: Former Chief Minister of Punjab and President of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), Pervez Elahi, has issued an important message through his lawyer while being imprisoned at Adiala Jail.
While in jail, Pervez Elahi met with his lawyer Sardar Abdul Razzaq Khan. During the meeting, they discussed the cases and legal matters, while President PTI informed the lawyer about the conditions and difficulties in jail.
Pervez Elahi stated that he has been continuously targeted for political vengeance for the past four months, but he will not deviate from his political stance. He expressed his determination to confront false cases. Lawyer Sardar Abdul Razzaq Khan, speaking to the media after the meeting, revealed that instead of providing facilities to Pervez Elahi in jail, they have built walls in front of his cell, blocking out light and air.
Sardar Abdul Razzaq Khan mentioned that the former Chief Minister of Punjab is being kept in harsh conditions, with no permission to visit him. He stated that they will approach the High Court against the unfair treatment towards Pervez Elahi.
It should be noted that on September 6, Pervez Elahi had made it clear during a courtroom interaction with journalists that he had no intention of holding a press conference. The Capital Police had filed a case in the CTD police station, presenting President PTI in the Anti-Terrorism Court, where he had an informal conversation with media representatives in the courtroom.
A journalist had asked, "Mr. Pervez Elahi, why aren't you returning to your party?" To which he responded that Chaudhry Shujaat has sent him to PTI. Another question was asked to Pervez Elahi, "Then why hasn't Chaudhry Shujaat himself joined PTI?" In response, he stated that he hasn't come to PTI because his son, Salik Hussain, had an aspiration to become a minister.
