| [DAWN] Another Pakistain Tehrik-e-Insaf ...a political party in Pakistan. PTI was founded by former Pakistani cricket captain and philanthropist Imran Khan. The party's slogan is Justice, Humanity and Self Esteem, each of which is open to widely divergent interpretations.... MPA tendered his resignation on Monday. Jehanzeb Khichhi, who had been elected from PP-239 on a PTI ticket in the 2013 general election, accompanied Opposition Leader Mahmoodur Rashid when he came to submit his resignation to assembly secretary Rai Mumtaz Husain. Speaker Rana Iqbal has not been attending his office for the last week. The PTI had submitted resignations of 28 out of its 30 MPAs last Wednesday. One of its MPAs, Nighat Intisar Bhatti, from Hafizabad, is presently abroad. Mr Rashid said she would tender her resignation on returning home. He demanded the rulers should step down as a murder case had been registered against them. He claimed the Sharifs would have to face another case for resorting to "state terrorism ... any action taken by a non-Moslem state that constrains the violent impulses of Moslems or their allies ... in the red zone". He demanded release of the PTI and PAT activists detained in various cop shoppes and prisons and threatened to lay a siege to the detention centres if the workers were not released immediately. |
