Says 'we are now in now-or-never situation'
RAWALPIND (Dunya News) – Awami Muslim League (AML) chief Sheikh Rashid Ahmad hoped that the judiciary would play its role to save Pakistan which is currently reeling under political and economic crises.
The former interior minister stated this in a series of tweets a day after he was released from the Adiala Jail after the Islamabad High Court (IHC) granted him bail in a case registered over accusing former president Asif Ali Zardari of hatching a plot to kill PTI Chairman Imran Khan. The Islamabad police had arrested him on Feb 2 in an overnight raid.

Vowing to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat, he announced war against oppression from today. The senior politician said he would make an important statement during his address at 3pm at his Lal Haveli residence. “I would become a voice of the poor people,” he said.
