Islamabad [Pakistan], April 17 (ANI): Rejecting Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf's (PTI) allegations of depriving its party founder Imran Khan of jail amenities at Adiala, Pakistan's Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting, Attaullah Tarar, said that the former Prime Minister was 'enjoying holidays instead of facing jail term'.

Speaking on Geo News programme 'Aaj Shahzeb Khanzada Kay Sath' on Wednesday, Tarar said, 'In my opinion, the PTI founder is actually enjoying holidays instead of facing a jail term.'

He said that PTI founder Imran Khan was permitted to meet people several times a week, and he is the only political leader who has been given this kind of leniency.

'Imran Khan is jailed in a corruption case, but he is not on holiday,' he said.

Tarar criticised the PTI's political moves, saying that they were not clear regarding the issues on which they wanted to hold talks, Geo News reported.

In response to a question regarding differences within the ruling coalition, he said that they respect their ally, the Pakistan People's Party (PPP), its chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari and the President of Pakistan, Asif Ali Zardari.

On PTI's allegations, Tarar stated that the federal government does not have time to plan for the former's demise from the political arena.

Attaullah Tarar said Pakistan Muslim League - Nawaz (PML-N) was serious about addressing the reservations of the PPP, and a committee was working under Pakistan's Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar in this regard.

He contended that there was infighting in PTI as the party was divided into two factions - Imran Khan's sister Aleema Khan's group and his wife Bushra Bibi's group.

'I really don't know which faction of the PTI was stopping another from meeting him [Imran Khan],' he further said.

Tarar's remarks came after several PTI leaders blamed each other for preventing them from meeting with Khan at Rawalpindi's Adiala jail.

Earlier, a controversy over meeting Imran Khan erupted again on Tuesday as PTI chairman Gohar Ali Khan said that the party granted permission to 'only two leaders' for the meeting according to their list. However, 'five leaders met the PTI founder today,' Geo News reported.

Gohar Ali Khan criticised the jail authorities for not allowing Imran Khan to meet his family members. He said, 'We condemn you for not allowing Khan's sisters to meet him.' (ANI)
