Some ‘conspiratorial elements’ are still attempting to bring Imran Khan back to power: Khawaja Asif

Defence Minister Khawaja Asif has warned that certain “conspiratorial elements” are still working to pave the way for the return of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder and former prime minister Imran Khan to power. Speaking at a press conference in Sialkot on Saturday, Asif alleged that during his tenure, the former premier carried out political victimisation in coordination with the now-convicted ex-ISI chief, Lt Gen (retd) Faiz Hamid. “All the victmisation was carried out through Faiz who would reportedly threaten Imran’s political rivals. Faiz played a dangerous game with the country, benefiting both himself and Imran,” the defence minister asserted.
