Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) \u201cJail Bharo Tehreek\u201d (fill prisons movement) appeared to be losing its steam as another day has passed without the arrest of a single leader or activist.<\/p>\n

On the fourth day of the “movement”, PTI leaders and workers gathered in Multan’s Nawan Sheher Chowk on the call of party chairman Imran Khan. However, all of them return without being arrested by the police.<\/p>\n

Anticipating multiple arrests, the police brought three prisoner vans to the locality but the PTI members left after only sitting in them.<\/p>\n

PTI leader Amir Dogar said, while announcing the end of protest, said that they were waiting for police to arrest them but they didn’t arrive, adding that former lawmakers were also among the protesters gathered at Nawan Sheher Chowk.<\/p>\n

“The police had parked their vehicles a kilometre away while we had announced to gather at Nawan Sheher Chowk,” he reasoned. Dogar further said that they were willing to voluntarily present themselves for the arrest on the call of Imran Khan and can come again in a day or two if the PTI chief asked.<\/p>\n

A similar situation was witnessed in Peshawar on Thursday where not a single leader or activist was arrested.<\/p>\n

In the evening amid the slogans of the PTI supporters, the sit-in staged by the party activists came to an end as the leaders announced that the police were reluctant to arrest them.<\/p>\n

They announced that PTI chairman had ordered them to end the protest and sit-in.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, the PTI chief had announced that his party leadership would soon start \u201ccourting arrests\u201d in response to the government\u2019s roughshod tactics to muzzle the opposition party through \u201cpolitically motivated\u201d cases.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe treatment meted out to Sheikh Rashid and Fawad Chaudhry is in front of everyone. What happened to Arshad Sharif is also in front of everyone,\u201d Imran continued. Those who \u201ctortured us on May 25 [during the PTI long march last year] are imposed again\u201d.<\/p>\n

Imran alleged that his party leaders were being threatened with dire consequences, including threats to their families, and coerced to sign \u201cfake statements\u201d. \u201cOur people are being arrested and made to sign fake statements,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf they desire to arrest us, we will fulfil it through the \u2018Jail Bharo Tehreek\u2019. \u201cDon\u2019t scare us with jails. When our movement starts, there will be no space left in jails,\u201d he said. \u201cIt will break the idol of fear.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
