Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan said his party had not asked Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to involve the Army to broker a settlement between the government and protesting parties.
In multiple speeches today, Imran said the premier had lied to parliament. He pointed to DG ISPR Asim Bajwa's Twitter update as proof.
The PTI chief categorically rejected the premier's speech in the National Assembly while addressing his supporters. He said the party had told the army chief that the party did not repose any trust in the premier.
"How can a judicial commission be successful if Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif is in power," Khan questioned, while referring to the commission that will be formed to investigate irregularities in the May 2013 elections.
The PTI chief said that Nawaz Sharif had, without any remorse or fear, destroyed the country. Khan maintained that Nawaz will have to step down at any cost.
Khan said those sitting in the Parliament were trying to protect poll rigging from coming to the forefront.
