Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) recently filed a plea in the Islamabad High Court (IHC) requesting a copy of former Prime Minister Imran Khan’s aide Azam Khan’s ‘cypher drama’ statement. The statement, which emerged after Azam Khan’s sudden reappearance, revealed shocking allegations against Imran Khan, suggesting his involvement in using a diplomatic cypher to concoct a narrative against the establishment and the Opposition.
In response to the statement, PTI chairman Imran Khan refrained from commenting until more information came to light. However, Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah called it a ‘charge sheet’ against Imran Khan, demanding punishment for the alleged anti-state ‘cypher drama.’ The incident has sparked controversy, with accusations of tarnishing state institutions and national interests.
The situation has escalated further, as the Federal Investigation Authority’s Counter Terrorism Wing summoned Imran Khan in connection with the cypher case. The PTI chief is now facing the possibility of being held accountable for the alleged crime, with plans to register a case against him and refer it to a special court.
As the drama unfolds and legal proceedings take place, the implications of Azam Khan’s statement and the resulting petition have drawn attention and raised questions about the alleged conspiracy and its impact on Pakistan’s political landscape
