Ex-PTI Leaders Mobilize Political Contacts for Imran Khan Release

Islamabad (The Azadi Times) – Former leaders of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) have reportedly decided to engage political parties and key stakeholders in a coordinated effort to secure the release of party founder Imran Khan.

Sources familiar with the matter revealed that a high-level meeting took place last Friday with Shah Mahmood Qureshi, where the former leadership discussed a strategy for dialogue and negotiation across the political spectrum.

The coordination team reportedly includes prominent PTI figures such as Fawad Chaudhry, Imran Ismail, Ali Zaidi, Mehmood Molvi, and Sabtain Khan. According to insiders, these leaders are exploring meetings with Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) representatives and other political actors to create a framework for de-escalation.
