Khan went to see the court of sessions judge Kamran Basharat just one day before the IHC bail that was keeping him out of jail ran out.
After the hearing, Awan told the press that all charges against Khan were false.
“PTI is coming back to power with one-third of the vote. Imran Khan is the only person who can bring about change “he said. The lawyer said that the chair of the PTI has never given a reason for being sick.
Awan then said that the cipher is “interference and a plot.”
He said, “We don’t accept anyone who says bad things about Pakistan.”
Awan said they would soon march toward Islamabad in response to the PTI’s call for a long march, but Imran Khan will tell them exactly when.
