ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan has on Thursday defended his use of ‘laanath’ for parliament by saying that given the context it was actually a mild word to use.
In a series of tweets, Imran Khan said that when a parliament passes a person-specific law in order to allow him to head a party despite having been disqualified by the Supreme Court over ‘Rs 3 bn money laundering, tax evasion, concealment of assets, forgery & perjury’, the parliament deserved the ‘laanath’.
He went on to say that the word was in fact quite mild in this specific context and then challenged those who disagreed to do a public poll in order to learn what the public actually thought about the parliament.
Imran Khan had used the aforementioned word for the parliament during his speech in Lahore at the protest sit-in by the joint opposition.
After these two explosive tweets, the PTI chief announced a press conference in the afternoon where he claimed to make another set of ‘explosive revelations’.
