The man stated that he would prefer to work and would not accept any position at the party. He did, however, state that he would not tolerate anything illegal being done to Imran Khan.
While the person hurled threats, Suri sat unmoved, smiling at his assertions as others applauded.
Meanwhile, Tallal Chaudhry, the leader of the PML-N, blamed Khan for the threats. “They are issuing threats now after losing by-elections in NA-108, where Imran Khan himself was a candidate,” he said.
Chaudhry urged the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) and police to take action, saying they would go to any length to protect their leadership.
