In a shocking news, PTI secretary general announced to leave from Pakistan Tehreek e Insaf (PTI) posts including secretary general and core committee membership on Wednesday hours after he came out of Adiala Jail on Islamabad High Court orders.
He left the Adiala Jail on a private car.
He said it was not possible for him to continue working on a leading position of PTI. Asad Umar said he condemned the May 9 violene.
Asad Umar said he respect the decision of the Fawad Chaudhry and Shireen Mazari for leaving the party.
The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Wednesday ordered the release of PTI Secretary General Asad Umar, setting aside his detention order under the Maintenance of Public Order Ordinance.
The PTI leader was arrested on May 10, a day after violent protests broke out in the country following the arrest of ex-premier Imran Khan. Umar was taken into custody from the IHC premises and has been incarcerated at Adiala Jail since.
Justice Miangul Hassan Aurangzeb presided over the hearing during which PTI’s Babar Awan represented Umar.
At the outset of the hearing, Justice Aurangzeb said, “They will not let you go until you hold a press conference”.
