PTI founder and former premier Imran Khan has expressed his lack of confidence in Chief Justice of Pakistan, Justice Qazi Faez Isa, and declared his intention to go on a hunger strike in jail.
The PTI supremo made this statement during a media interaction at Rawalpindi’s Adiala Jail, citing ongoing concerns over CJ’s involvement in benches handling PTI and his personal cases.
Imran Khan highlighted objections raised by his legal team regarding the judge’s repeated presence, indicating a growing belief within his camp that justice may not be impartially served under these circumstances.
The PTI founder referenced a recent decision by Justice Gulzar’s five-member bench, which supported his team’s stance that CJ should not preside over their cases. Additionally, he noted the administrative dynamics within the jail, mentioning the involvement of senior military officials in day-to-day operations.
Referring to the incident where a scheduled meeting with his team was unexpectedly cancelled, Imran expressed disappointment over the missed opportunity to resolve internal disputes had the meeting proceeded as planned.
