“He [Imran] has relentlessly maligned and attacked the armed forces and the sitting Army Chief and very cunningly prepared his cult with the slogans of ‘Haqeeqi Azadi’ aimed at inciting them for violence we witnessed on May 9,” Mr Sharif further said in his tweet.
The premier’s latest bashing of the PTI chief followed the National Security Committee (NSC) meeting that endorsed the army’s decision to try the perperators and sabotuers of May 9 attacks on military installations and properties under the Army Act.
