GUJRANWALA, Non 2 (FD): PTI Chairperson Imran Khan on Wednesday said that the people of Pakistan need to “stand up for their rights” as he resumed the party’s ‘Haqeeqi Long March’ from Gujranwala on Day 6.

“Justice is only given in human society and you will have to support me. It is better to die than be a slave,” said the PTI chairperson.

Addressing the participants on the start of the sixth day, PTI Chairman Imran Khan said that there is no progress in a society till there is justice.

“Non-provision of justice is our biggest problem,” said the PTI chief. He added that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif was set to be sentenced in the Rs16 billion corruption case.

The former prime minister further questioned the deaths of officers investigating corruption cases against Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and said “all officers died one after another”.

Imran says biggest issue is that corrupt leaders get to top without any accountability “No one asked how they all died of a sudden and then Imran Raza, another officer conducting the inquiry, died later.”

Reiterating that the system “can not be fixed untill the powerful are brought under the law”, Imran claimed “hidden hands” were helping so the incumbent government’s leadership does not get arrested.

He also lamented that Pakistan’s biggest issue is that corrupt people get into leadership without any accountability.

Following the speech, Senator Faisal Javed asked people to take the party’s oath. This is the second such march by Imran this year; first was on May 25 and fizzled out after PTI reached the Red Zone
