ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister’s Adviser on Political Affairs Rana Sanaullah has stated that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan’s release is possible if he offers a wholehearted apology for the events of May 9, 2023 — which saw military installations being vandalised across the country in riots triggered after his arrest in a graft case.
Speaking to Saleem Safi in Geo News programme “Jirga”, Sanaullah said Imran Khan had pushed the country into a political deadlock, believing he could bring about a revolution through his actions. “But no, there are no chances of a revolution. Only political struggles will lead to victory here,” he asserted.
He ruled out any possibility of success through Imran’s methods, particularly referencing to the events of November 24-26, 2024, when the PTI marched towards Islamabad.
When asked whether Imran’s release was possible if he apologised for May 9, Sanaullah responded: “I think that if he apologises over May 9, then talks can proceed, or maybe we can talk.”
