PML-N leader said Imran Khan should write down that he will come to court on every appearance, and if he is not arrested, the cases should be tried. She said that Imran Khan will appear as an undertaking in all the cases and he should be arrested when the cases are decided.

She said that who allowed Zalmay Khalilzad to interfere in internal affairs. She further said the state was attacked by the members of the banned organization in Lahore and Imran Khan is doing all this to avoid arrest.

Maryam Nawaz said that political parties are known for their struggle and sacrifices but a person who calls himself a political leader has staged a show in Lahore for the last five days to avoid arrest.

Maryam Nawaz said that a person has kept the constitution under the shoes of his feet and even today his warrant has been suspended by the court. She questioned why does he have this facility. She said democracy is the only way forward, accountability of undemocratic people.  She said democracy will be strong in a country where there is justice.

She said that the root of every disease in Pakistan is Imran Khan and the fabric of every problem in Pakistan is connected to Imran. She said Imran Khan is responsible for the current situation in Pakistan and added that she feels pain whenever mentions his name.
