Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan has condemned the \u201ccomplete collapse of the justice system\u201d, saying Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo Nawaz Sharif\u2019s return to the country is the execution of the London \u201cagreement\u201d.<\/p>\n

In a statement issued through his family on Oct 24 and posted on PTI chief\u2019s official X handle on Friday, the former prime minister said that all that was happening today was a \u201ctotal mockery of the law\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy Pakistanis! In the last few days, we have witnessed a total mockery of the law. All that is happening today is not just an execution of a London \u2018plan\u2019 but London \u2018agreement\u2019 that was signed between a cowardly fugitive & corrupt criminal and his facilitators,\u201d Imran was quoted as saying.<\/p>\n

The statement was released six days after Nawaz\u2019s homecoming from four years of self-imposed exile in London on Oct 21.<\/p>\n

Nawaz was given protective bail in two graft cases and arrest warrants in another case were suspended before his arrival paving the way for a smooth return.<\/p>\n

Lamenting the relief granted to the PML-N leader, Imran said: \u201cThe only way a convicted criminal could be allowed to return to politics with a clean chit is by destroying State institutions. And hence, what we are witnessing is a complete collapse of our justice system.\u201d<\/p>\n

The PTI chairman said, \u201cMy Pakistanis! Please remember, all the cases against me are completely bogus & politically motivated, concocted only to keep me in jail for certain period of time till after the elections or maybe much longer beyond the elections. However, the growing political awareness and increasing resistance against closed-room conspiracies in my nation scares them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Imran also shared his health status during his jail time, saying: \u201cAt the moment I am physically fit. I would know if my body was experiencing change from weakness.\u201d<\/p>\n

He claimed that he might be poisoned in jail, citing previous attempts on his life.<\/p>\n

He, however, urged the people to continue their struggle, saying that the party leadership had been advised to start campaigning for elections.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
