Aleema Khan, the sister of former premier Imran Khan, has said the PTI would have talked to other political parties if its “stolen seats” were returned back to it.

Speaking to the media outside the Adiala district jail, she said she was denied a meeting with her brother, who is currently incarcerated there. Aleema criticised the judicial system, claiming that hearings were not being held properly.

On the matter of not holding a dialogue with the PPP, she said, “Could Imran make a government with the PPP? Can you imagine that those that the public wants to get rid of… The matter is that when the PPP offered to meet, we asked them to return our stolen seats.

“Tell them that if they return all our seats, we will sit with everyone,” Aleema said, alleging that the PML-N, PPP and MQM-P had won multiple NA seats wrongfully.
