I have been completely isolated in a cell, placed in solitary confinement.

USPA NEWS - Asim Munir is a mentally unstable person whose moral degradation has led to the complete collapse of the Constitution and the rule of law in Pakistan, leaving the fundamental human rights of every Pakistani unprotected.

My wife and I have been imprisoned on fabricated charges at his command, and we are being subjected to severe psychological torment. I have been completely isolated in a cell, placed in solitary confinement. For four weeks I was not permitted to see a single human being, and I was kept entirely cut off from the outside world. Even the basic necessities guaranteed under the jail manual have been denied to us.

Despite the orders of the High Court, first my meetings with my political colleagues were prohibited, and now even my meetings with my lawyers and family have been stopped. Any human rights charter will show that psychological torture is classified as 'torture', and it is regarded as even more severe than physical abuse.
 

My sister Noreen Niazi was dragged on the road simply because she demanded her rightful meeting with me. Only a man like Asim Munir could sanction such conduct. He has imprisoned Dr. Yasmin Rashid, an elderly cancer survivor, purely out of political vengeance. My wife, Bushra Begum, has been imprisoned only to exert pressure on me. Even her children are not allowed to meet her, and she has been deprived of all facilities. These examples reveal the character and mental disposition of this man.

Enduring solitary confinement is extremely painful, but I am bearing it only for the sake of my nation. Until the nation itself breaks the chains of slavery, the mafias imposed on Pakistan will continue to exploit it. The extension mafia, land mafia, sugar mafia, and mandate-thief mafia will keep this nation enslaved until the people themselves rise. Today you are their slaves; your future generations will be slaves to their generations. If you want to break this cycle, the nation must break the chains of enslavement itself and stand up for Haqeeqi Azadi (genuine freedom).
 

There is no place in my party for those who play on both sides of the wicket. Such people are the ‘Mir Sadiq’ and ‘Mir Jafar’ of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf. The participation of PTI individuals in the NDU workshop is shameful. On one hand, we are enduring all kinds of hardships, and on the other hand, when our own people socialise with those who oppress us, it causes me deep pain.
 
I have always stated that drone attacks and military operations on our own people only fuels terrorism. Asim Munir’s policies are disastrous for this country. It is because of his policies that the scourge of terrorism has spiraled out of control, which deeply grieves me. He has no regard for the interests of his own nation. Whatever he is doing is merely to please the Western world. He deliberately ignited tensions with Afghanistan seeking to portray himself internationally as a ‘mujahid’ (warrior). He first threatened Afghans, then expelled refugees by force, and conducted drone strikes on them; the consequences of which came in the form of rising terrorism inside Pakistan. This man has sacrificed the country to terrorism for his own personal interests.

Sohail Afridi is commendable because he chose resistance over reconciliation during repressive times. My message to Sohail Afridi is to continue playing on the front foot. There is no law or constitution in this country. The law is invoked only against Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf; everyone else remains exempt. Whatever Sohail Afridi is doing, he should continue. He has my full support.

As for those issuing threats of Governor’s Rule: impose it right away instead of waiting, and then see consequences for themselves!

Mehmood Khan Achakzai and Allama Raja Nasir Abbas are extremely respectable to me. They are pro-democracy and principled individuals. I am surprised that their notification has not yet been issued. I direct Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s parliamentary group to protest this matter before the Speaker and Chairman Senate so that their notification as Leader of the Opposition may be issued. Moreover, for any movement against the existing system, PTI must fully comply with any call issued by Tehreek Tahaffuz-e-Ayeen Pakistan.

I hereby dissolve the PTI Political Committee. The party’s Secretary-General, Salman Akram Raja, has full authority to constitute a new, concise committee that will devise political strategy and ensure its implementation.
 
I nominate Shahid Khattak as Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s Parliamentary Leader in the National Assembly.

In the Pakistan Bar elections, PTI must unite to fully support those candidates nominated by Salman Akram Raja and Hamid Khan. In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, the matters of the lawyers, the bars and the ILF shall be reviewed personally by Sohail Afridi, who will take whatever decisions are necessary for improvement.   Agriculture is the backbone of our economy, and its current state is alarming. The way the rights of farmers are being plundered is extremely regrettable.” Conversation with his sister by the unjustly imprisoned former Prime Minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan, after one month of solitary confinement in Adiala Jail (December 2, 2025)
