Imran Khan’s sister says UK is in contact over threats

Aleema Khan, sister of PTI chief, Imran Khan said on Monday that the British government has contacted Imran Khan in connection with his concerns over the safety of party workers in Karachi.

Aleema was talking to reporters in Karachi after she arrived in the city to attend the “soyem” of PTI leader Zahra Shahid Hussain, who was killed by gunmen a day earlier of re-polling for NA-250 constituency.

Imran Khan accused the MQM chief Altaf Hussain and the British government of the murder as Hussain threatened his arrival in telephonic speeches from London.

He said that he will keep on pushing for pursuing the case and the MQM threats cannot stop him from his struggle.

The PTI chairman’s sister told the media that Imran was concerned about the safety of the PTI supporters protesting in Karachi.

“He was concerned because supporters and leaders have been receiving threats,” she explained.

She further added that PTI supporters in Karachi were threatened not to leave their homes.

Regarding the course the party will take for the murder case, Aleema said the Karachi leadership of PTI will decide on who to nominate in Hussain’s murder FIR.
