Rana said this matter falls under the jurisdiction of the courts, and the government has no authority to release him.

Bail and Cases: Legal Challenges

Speaking on a private TV program, he said that Imran Khan will have to secure bail in his cases to be released. More than two dozen cases were filed against Imran Khan on November 24 and 25, he argued. These cases have made the current situation even more complicated, hindering the negotiation process.

Stalemate in negotiations: Government and Imran Khan

Rana Sanaullah stated that the Prime Minister has extended an invitation for negotiations, but Imran Khan has not given any indication regarding this. According to him, Imran Khan insists on holding talks only with the establishment. If negotiations are initiated with PTI, said Rana Sanaullah, Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) will be taken into confidence, and the establishment will also be included in the dialogue process.

The role of the Establishment: Facts and Misconceptions

Rana Sanaullah rejected the perception that the establishment is disappointed with the government. Referring to the press conference by the DG ISPR on May 8, Rana Sanuallah said that the establishment has already permitted the initiation for negotiation, ensuring the engagement of political parties.

Protests and Imran Khan’s next move

When asked by the program’s anchor whether Imran Khan might make a major move, Rana Sanaullah said that the PTI founder could potentially resort to civil disobedience. He revealed that on November 24, Imran khan was requested not to march towards D-chowk, but he refused. He also mentioned that Imran Khan intends to make an important announcement in Peshawar on December 15.

Complex situation, but prospects for negotiations remain

In the current scenario, the possibility of Imran Khan s release seems difficult, as the negotiations between government and PTI are at stalemate. However, political parties remain optimistic that issues can be resolved through dialogues.
