Discussing his “Taliban policy”, Chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, Mr. Imran Khan in a TV talk-show said that today we have to make new relations with the locals of tribal areas. During interview, host Talat Hussain asked the question that why doesn't he condemn the suicide attacks, kidnapping for ransom, torching government assets and other barbarism of Taliban? In response, Khan took a U-Turn and said there are many condemnation statements on the PTI’s official website. Talat Hussain asked the question, who attacked peace icon of Pakistan award winning teenager ‘Malala Yousafzai’? First Imran adopted the attitude just like he does not know who did that but he revealed on repeatedly asking that attackers were Taliban. But still, Khan did not condemn the attack on the Malala during interview.
Further Imran clarified that PTI and its leaders/workers are helpless to condemn the terrorism and barbarism of Taliban because PTI leaders and workers are active in Khyber PakhtunKhwa and Tribal areas. He added that if PTI gives any statement against Taliban then who will provide security to the leaders and workers of PTI?
