Meher Bano Qureshi, daughter of PTI vice chairman Shah Mehmood Qureshi, has urged supporters to speak up for her father and party founder Imran Khan, who she said have “given the ultimate sacrifice”.

Both Qureshi and Imran have been sentenced to 10 years in jail in the cipher case. Earlier this week, the former prime minister was also handed another 14-year sentence in the Toshakhana reference.

“It is our responsibility to ensure that we succeed in our mission to establish the rule of law and system of true justice in Pakistan,” Meher Bano said in a post on X.

She sought support for PTI-backed candidates across Pakistan, requesting the people of the NA-151 (Multan IV) constituency to “stand by their kaptaan and naib kaptaan by voting for the chimta on the 8th of February.”

“Inshallah [God willing] we will be victorious in this fight against injustice and cruelty,” she added.
