LAHORE: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan Saturday asked his workers and supporters to prepare for “Jail Bharo” movement across the country.

Khan’s comments come in the wake of sedition cases filed against his party’s Senior Vice-President Fawad Chaudhry and former member of National Assembly Shandana Gulzar, while Senator Azam Swati and Shahbaz Gill were booked earlier for speaking against the military. 

During his televised address, the deposed prime minister said his party could have opted for a nationwide strike, but will choose to fill the prisons instead in light of the fears that the country’s economy might deteriorate further.
