[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text dp_text_size=”size-4″]PTI leaders have expressed solidarity with fellow leader Murad Saeed, who appears to have caught the attention of the federal government, which is looking to arrest him.
According to reports, the federal government has directed the caretaker government of Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) to conduct an investigation and arrest PTI leader and former federal minister Murad Saeed.
Shortly after the reports surfaced, Murad Saeed released a video statement in which he claimed that “Dirty Harry” had threatened him with a “dead or alive” order. In his message, Murad Saeed stated that the nation stands by him and will not be silenced in the face of death threats.
PTI leaders and supporters have taken to social media to express solidarity with Murad Saeed. They are praising him for not backing down and continuing to raise his voice against the increasing terrorism in Pakistan.
“When the State fears the truth and those who expose ground realities, especially on return of terrorists, then it is open season on abductions and assassinations and all manner of dirty even psychopathic operations,” former federal minister of human rights Shireen Mazari said.

“Just as a false narrative was created before the assassination attempt on Imran Khan that a religious extremist would attack him, the same narrative has now started about Murad Saeed. Narrative initiating characters are the same and plotting characters are the same,” former federal minister on planning Asad Umar said.
جس طرح عمران خان پر قاتلانہ حملے سے پہلے ایک جھوٹا بیانیہ بنایا گیا تھا کہ کوئی مذہبی شدت پسند ان پر حملہ کرے گا، وہی بیانیہ اب مراد سعید کے بارے میں شروع۔ بیانیہ شروع کرنے والے کردار بھی وہی اور لگتا ہے منصوبہ بندی کرنے والے کردار بھی وہی #StandwithMuradSaeed

“Murad Saeed is a rising star of the young generation against whom every plot to destroy will fail no matter how powerful they are,” PT senator Shibli Faraz said.
مراد سعید نوجوان نسل کا ایک ابھرتا ستارہ ھے جسے گل کرنے کی ھر سازش ناکام ہو گی چاہے وہ کتنے ہی طاقت ور کیوں نہ ہوں۔

“This man is becoming a hero. And he deserves it. We need courage like this. Stay away from him,” former KP minister Taimur Khan Jhagra said.
“Arresting Murad Saeed or having a murderous attack on him will be a big mistake of the imported government. Pakistan is in dire need of young and hardworking politicians like Murad Saeed who are not related to any mafia family but still, they have come forward with their dedication and hard work in a difficult field like politics. May Allah protect Murad,” former SAPM Zulfi Bukhari said.
مراد سعید کو گرفتار کرنا یا اس پر قاتلانہ حملہ کروانا امپورٹڈ حکومت کی بہت بڑی بھول ہو گی ۔ پاکستان کو مراد سعید جیسے نوجوان اور محنتی سیاستدانوں کی شدید ضرورت ہے جنکا تعلق کسی مافیا خاندان سے نہیں لیکن پھر بھی وہ اپنی لگن اور محنت سے سیاست جیسے مشکل میدان میں اپنا لوہا منوا کر… https://t.co/LCMpogFPCL

It’s worth noting that Murad Saeed has been extremely vocal about the country’s need for a strong and effective counterterrorism strategy. He recently organised a rally in protest of the Kabul attack and in support of the police, which he addressed in 15 districts at the same time.
Murad Saeed has frequently claimed to have received death threats. He approached the Islamabad High Court last month to provide details about the cases filed against him, avoid arrest, and obtain security.
