Imran Khan Threatens to End Talks Without Judicial Commissions

Former Prime Minister and PTI Chairman Imran Khan has issued a stern warning to the government, stating that his party will withdraw from ongoing talks unless judicial commissions are formed to address key issues. Speaking at a recent gathering, Khan emphasized the importance of impartial investigations into controversial matters that have plagued political and institutional integrity.

The PTI leader asserted that the establishment of judicial commissions is a non-negotiable condition for the party to move forward with any dialogue. “Without transparency and accountability, there can be no trust in the process,” Khan stated, urging the government to act swiftly.

This demand comes amid growing tensions between PTI and the ruling coalition, with both sides seeking common ground to resolve ongoing political and economic crises. While the government has yet to respond to Khan’s ultimatum, analysts predict that this stance may further complicate an already fragile negotiation process. The spotlight now turns to the government’s willingness to meet PTI’s demands or risk a breakdown in talks.
