ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan Thursday said that party founder chairman Imran Khan is the boss, as he orders and they follow.

Gohar said this during media talk here outside the Election Commission of Pakistan Secretariat while replying to a question about Imran’s final call of protest on November 24.

“Khan Sahib is the boss. He does not recommend. He orders and we follow. It is a separate thing that we have not met him. But we are today having a meeting with him,” he noted.

He acknowledge the fact that Imran had decided on the final call, asking what options they had left with when they were not getting relief from the courts.

Referring to the PTI founder chairman’s final call for protest on November 24, he said that protests will be seen all over the world on Imran’s call.

“Everyone will participate in the protest, this is the order of the PTI founder,” he maintained.

About the brief detainment of his party leaders by the police the other day, who had gone to the Adiala Jail to meet Imran. “We have condemned this incident. It is a court order on the basis of which a meeting was to be held with the founder chairman, so such incidents should not happen,” he said. He then asked that if relief was not received from the court, then what could they do.

Separately, talking to the media outside the Rawalpindi’s Adiala Jail, Imran Khan’s sister Aleema Khan said that her brother’s November 24 call for protest was final.

“This is Imran Khan’s call for protest and it is final and everyone has to come out for his future and the country,” she emphasised when pointed out that the previous two protests on September 28 and October 5 had not yielded results.

Aleema feared that Punjab administration could resort to unconstitutional thing with regards to their planned protest.

She said. “If our demands are not met on reaching here, then we will decide next line of action,” she said in reply to another question.
