Rulers harassing us because they can't win elections, tweets Imran Khan

LAHORE (92 News) - PTI chairman Imran Khan has strongly condemned the repeated police raids on former chief minister Chaudhary Pervez Elahi's home in Gujrat as well as arbitrary arrests and abductions of his supporters as well as those who worked with him.

In a message on Twitter on Wednesday, he said: "This is naked fascism on the part of the imported government and their handlers, simply to spread fear in all who support us.

"Just to remind, arrests of and actions against the Sharifs and  others during our government were a result of the NAB cases with over 95 percent filed before we were voted into power and of the international Panama revelations. While in custody, they were given the VIP treatment. But what they wanted was teh NRO which we refused.

"In contrast, they are using all manner of harassment, arrests, custodial torture and abductions purely for political victimisation. They know they cannot win any elections, so are trying to beat us down through use of the brutal state power. It won't work. Our resolve only gets stronger."
