LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) reacted to reports that Imran Khan has hired British barrister Geoffrey Ronald Robertson to represent him in international courts.
Addressing a press conference, PML-N leader Attaullah Tarar said Niazi has crossed all limits to save his politics and is showing enmity to his religion.
Geoffrey Robertson has been the lawyer of the damned Salman Rushdie,” he said, revealing that the British barrister has represented the controversial writer.
“After enmity to the state, Imran Khan is now going against Islam,” Tarar also questioned Khan’s announcement to go to the International Court of Justice.
“Chairman PTI’s announcement to go to the International Court is to go against the state and the country,” he said.
Tarar maintained that Imran Khan worked against national institutions and gave evidence of anti-nationalism during May 9 riots. He said the political party attacked the country, adding that one person is misleading the entire youth.
