ISLAMABAD: In a strong response to PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz’s acquittal in a corruption case, the PTI on Thursday said it was the “real reason” behind party chairman Imran Khan’s ouster, Geo News reported.

The Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf (PTI) has been building a narrative since its ouster in April this year that the party’s removal from the government was the incumbent rulers’ strategy to get themselves acquitted of corruption.

PTI Senior Vice President Fawad Chaudhry claimed the state institutions have lost the nation’s confidence and said their decisions have “no value” in the people’s court. “Beyond any doubt, it is another dark day in the history of Pakistan,” he added.

In a tweet, PTI Secretary-General leader Asad Umar said: “Inflation is increasing day by day and cases of imported government leaders are being dismissed daily.” “These are the main reason[s] for which Imran Khan was removed through conspiracy.”

Former energy minister Hammad Azhar said the PML-N was also a “bit embarrassed” after today’s ruling. PTI’s Babar Awan said the jail department would teach lessons about the Sharif family to prisoners so that they can get NRO II as well.
