The party of Pakistan’s jailed former prime minister, Imran Khan, has asked the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to factor in the country’s “political instability” in any further bailout talks, two people familiar with the matter said on Wednesday, reported Reuters. The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has sent the letter to the IMF detailing its position, two senior sources in the party reportedly said, adding more details would be made public in due course. The IMF didn’t respond to an email for a comment on the letter, but has already addressed the issue during a press briefing by Julie Kozack, the IMF’s Director of Strategic Communications, last week. During the briefing, the IMF official had stated that the lender looks forward “to working with the new government” of Pakistan, refraining from commenting on former prime minister Imran Khan’s intent to write a letter to the lender over alleged rigging in the elections.
