Islamabad: PTI leader Ali Zafar has called out alleged hypocrisy of government’s offers for conciliation while drawing comparisons between government and Israel.

“You should remember what Israel does [...] They call Palestinians and tell them that they will help them [...] and as they gather for help, they bomb them,” Zafar said while speaking to private TV channel.

He said that government said it wanted to reconcile, talk about democracy and strengthen economy but did not stop political victimisation of PTI workers.

He said his party has decided to continue its protest against alleged rigging in general elections throughout Ramdhan.

Zafar stated that party meeting, reviewed treatment of peaceful protestors across country and decided that it would not wait for Eidul Fitr and would instead continue current series of demonstrations.

“We saw today that they did not allow people to meet Imran Khan, so it could be decided that protest is taken to [outside] Adiala Jail.”
