Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader and Member of the National Assembly (MNA) Shehryar Afridi has denied reports that PTI founder had decided to remove senior party leader Sher Afzal Marwat. He added, “He has served the party well, and we will speak to the PTI founder regarding him.”
Speaking to the media outside the Peshawar High Court on Thursday, Afridi said, “The PTI founder did not discuss removing Sher Afzal Marwat in my presence. He has made significant contributions to the party and has always responded when called upon.”
Referring to the events of November 26, he stated that the entire nation witnessed what transpired and that PTI’s leadership has always advocated for the rule of law.
“The supremacy of law ensures the longevity of a nation. We will continue to stand for the Constitution and the law,” he added, criticising stakeholders for abandoning promises made to tribal communities.
Afridi also condemned what he called state oppression against PTI in Punjab, citing the imposition of Section 144 across the province on February 8. Despite restrictions, he claimed, the public voted for PTI and rejected other parties.
He further alleged that PTI leaders and workers were being subjected to unjust imprisonment and violence. “These actions are weakening Pakistan,” he warned.
The PTI leader also accused the federal government of withholding development funds for Kohat and called for unity in upholding legal supremacy. “Why is a judicial commission not being formed? What is the obstacle?” he questioned.
