Lahore—Tehreek-e-Insaf chairman Imran Khan, in a message released by video link, said: "I have been isolated. I am sitting here alone, I am lying here empty. Only two or three people are left with me. People are afraid to come here. I have become a victim of loneliness. I cannot even telephone anyone, because all my people are in hiding and the rest are all in jail. It has been decided in closed rooms that Imran Khan is to be isolated and his party finished. I have been left alone. Now even my lawyers have begun to be afraid, and it is possible that they too will abandon me."
He said that he was filing a petition seeking Rs15 billion in damages against the NAB chairman, because the NAB chairman had violated NAB laws in the cases against him.
The former prime minister said that on 9 May 25 unarmed people were shot, and that there should be a transparent investigation into the incident. "We do not even know how many people were shot and how many are in jail. We want to help the workers, but they are so frightened that they do not want to leave their homes at all."
The Tehreek-e-Insaf chairman gave a message to all the parties of the Pakistan Democratic Movement, including the Muslim League-N and the Peoples Party: "I have known the establishment for 27 years. You will not even know when, in a closed room, it moves from Plan A to Plan B. Today you are watching in silence, but as soon as Plan B is made, you too will be trapped as we are."
Imran Khan also referred to the drugs case against Rana Sanaullah, saying that the case had been made by the ANF, which was headed by a major general, and that in a cabinet meeting "we asked for its details, to see whether a false case had been made".
He claimed that people would not vote for those who are leaving Tehreek-e-Insaf. "Whoever leaves our party, his politics will be finished. Do whatever you like, but it is Tehreek-e-Insaf that will win the next election."
