Former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan has condemned the attack on the privacy of the wife of a Senator (MP) of his party and asked the Chief Justice to take cognizance of it. He has apologized to the wife of the MP on behalf of the whole of Pakistan. Actually this statement of Imran Khan has come after the press conference of Senator Azam Swati, in which he told what happened to him and his family.
Allegations of ‘objectionable video’
Azam Swati cried while narrating her ordeal at the press conference. He said an “objectionable video” of him and his wife was sent to his wife from an unknown number. At the same time, he also said that “I cannot tell what is in the video because the daughters of my country are listening to it.” He also said that “after this episode his wife and granddaughters have left the country.” Huh.”

Imran’s strong reaction
Imran Khan said on Twitter that Pakistan is built on human dignity, family respect and Islamic moral values that do not cross “sheets and walls”. But what has happened to Azam Swati at the hands of the government is a violation of all these values. He said, “Their clothes were taken off in the custody and they were tortured. Now his wife’s privacy has been breached through this video.” Imran Khan has termed this video as shocking, disgusting and highly condemnable. He said that no human should go through such a phase. He urged the Chief Justice of Pakistan to take cognizance of this privacy violation and issue a notice. He said, “I would like to apologize on behalf of Pakistan to Smt Swati, a very religious woman who stays away from public life. I apologize to him on behalf of Pakistan.
I would like to apologize on behalf of Pakistan to Mrs. Swati, a very private, non-public, Tehjut Gujar woman who is suffering pain, agony and feeling of humiliation. — Imran Khan (@ImranKhanPTI) 5 November 2022
taught in custody
Earlier, Swati, an MP from Imran’s party Tehreek-e-Insaf, had alleged that she was “tortured in custody” by the Army and Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) officials. Swati demanded the Army Chief and the Chief Justice to get the matter probed so that this does not happen to others in future.
allegations against swati
Swati was arrested for her alleged anti-military tweet. However, he was later released on bail. In a press conference, Swati had blamed two senior army officers for the incident. He had also said that an FIA official would be involved in this.
attack on imran
Earlier on Friday, Imran addressed his countrymen. After firing in Thursday’s rally, Imran addressed the countrymen from the hospital itself. In this, he said that four people had conspired to kill him. Imran Khan, who appeared in front of the camera for the first time after the firing, said that he had received four bullets in the attack. Imran Khan claimed that the people of the country want to see him in power, but some people do not like it. So an attempt was made to kill him. He said, “Allah has given me new life. I will fight again.”
Significantly, Imran was shot by two gunmen in Wazirabad, Punjab. One person died in this firing. Imran Khan is out of danger and he can start the long march again.
