Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) has launched a sharp attack on Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Sohail Afridi, accusing him of using the issue of PTI founder Imran Khan’s release to advance what the party described as a dangerous agenda linked to militancy.

PPP Deputy Information Secretary Ahsan Rizvi made the allegations in a video statement issued on Wednesday, questioning Afridi’s intentions and his proposed political activities.

Rizvi alleged that the KP chief minister was not genuinely seeking Imran Khan’s release but was instead attempting to create a route for the Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and other militant groups towards Islamabad.
