WEB DESK, July 28(ABC): PTI chairman Imran Khan has strongly condemned the arrest of Leader of the Opposition in Sindh Assembly Haleem Adil Sheikh a day after he was held by the province’s Anti-Corruption Establishment (ACE).
ACE Sindh had arrested the PTI leader in a property transfer case on Wednesday when he went to the agency’s office in Jamshoro to record his statement.
Taking to Twitter, Imran Khan on Thursday termed Sheikh’s arrest as “pure fascism” that reflects the coalition leaders’ approach to eliminate those they “cannot buy.”
“Strongly condemn persecution and arrest of Sindh Opposition leader Haleem Adil Sheikh by Sindh govt. This is pure fascism, reflecting the Zardari-Sharif mafia’s approach of eliminating those they cannot purchase and it is absolutely unacceptable in any democracy,” the former premier wrote.
