There should be across the board accountability: Imran

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf chief Imran Khan called for across the board accountability to eradicate terrorism and corruption from the country.

“We should not see where the terrorist is coming from. Arrest criminals regardless of which political party and militant organisation they belong to,” Imran said while addressing the media in Karachi.

“To end terrorism, we need to end corruption,” he urged.

Responding to questions on former Mutahida Qaumi Movement [MQM] leader Amir Liaquat Hussain joining party ranks, Imran said he was in contact with him [Hussain] and others in Karachi.

“I have met with politicians, opinion makers, business, Hindu communities,” he said. “I will be meeting builders today and head to Karachi University to meet students and mobilise them.”

Berating Sindh government, Imran said the province’s situation cannot change until Asif Ali Zardari and Faryal Talpur were brought to justice as they were part of the problem.

“Nothing will improve until local government system in Sindh is fixed,” he said. “They have no power that is why Karachi Mayor Waseem Akhtar says he wants the system as K-P.”
