Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI ) negotiation committee has been allowed to meet former prime minister Imran Khan at Rawalpindi’s Adiala jail today.
According to sources, the meeting is expected to take place this afternoon, with the delegation scheduled to visit Adiala Jail at 2 PM, Express News reported.
This development follows contact between the PTI negotiation committee and National Assembly Speaker Ayaz Sadiq, which has raised hopes for the meeting with Imran Khan.
After PTI leader Omar Ayub sent a message regarding the negotiations, Speaker Ayaz Sadiq reached out to PTI leaders to discuss the matter.
Sources further revealed that Omar Ayub had messaged Speaker Ayaz Sadiq earlier in the day.
During the interaction, Speaker Ayaz Sadiq clarified that facilitating a meeting with the PTI founder was not his responsibility, though he assured efforts to arrange the meeting.
After meeting Imran Khan in jail, the PTI negotiation team plans to present their written demands.
It is worth noting that two rounds of negotiations between the government and PTI have already taken place, with the third round scheduled for Wednesday.
PTI’s Asad Qaiser accuses Maryam Nawaz, Khawaja Asif of sabotaging talks
Earlier, PTI leader Asad Qaiser accused senior government figures Maryam Nawaz and Khawaja Asif of deliberately attempting to derail ongoing negotiations.
In response to recent comments made by the two leaders, Qaiser claimed that their statements were part of an effort to sabotage the dialogue process. “The way Khawaja Asif and Maryam Nawaz are speaking, they are trying to block negotiations by any means possible,” he told the media. “Then, they accuse Imran Khan of tweeting.”
Qaiser stressed that PTI members had been subjected to injustice, referencing the events of November 26, when party members were allegedly denied their basic rights, and civilians were shot by police.
He also pointed to the military courts’ handling of PTI supporters involved in the May 9 incidents, asserting that military trials for civilians were unconstitutional.
