PM Imran Khan attempted to sack COAS: Amir Liaquat

KARACHI: The disgruntled leader of the Pakistan Tahreek-e-Insaf Amir Liaquat Hussain has claimed that Prime Minister Imran Khan attempted to sack the Chief of the Army Staff Qamar Javed Bajwa and he was a witness to it.

In a video message which went viral on social media, he said the prime minster discussed the matter with him and the PM said, “I am going to remove COAS Qamar Javed Bajwa.” He claimed that he knew many secrets and if he made them public, it would create a rumpus.

He said that there was no truth in the existence of any threat letter. The alleged 'threat letter' claimed by the PM Khan was written by Asad Qaiser and Shah Mehmood Qureshi was also involved in the scheme. He also warned President Arif Alvi to refrain from issuing baseless directives from the Presidency.
