Imran Khan Bigger Threat To Pakistan Than Narendra Modi, Says Defence Minister

Islamabad: Pakistan’s Defence Minister Khwaja M Asif has said that Imran Khan is a bigger threat to his country than Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

“Your foreign enemy is known to you. In Pakistan, the people are still unable to identify the enemy who was born here and is a bigger threat than the enemy from that nation (India). Imran Khan is more dangerous for Pakistan than Narendra Modi and people are not able to see this. He is present among us. Who is more dangerous? One who is among us or the one standing in front of you on the other side?” Asif asked during an interview with a Pakistani TV channel.

“This enemy is actually a bigger threat to our security and May 9 is proof of that. It was rebellion. It was a mutiny,” the minister claimed, referring to violent protests by supporters of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chief Imran when the former Prime Minister was arrested by armed paramilitary forces from inside the premises of Islamabad High Court on May 9 in connection with the Al-Qadir Trust case.

Protesters stormed the Army headquarters, residences of top commanders, burned vehicles on streets, blocked national highway and attacked security forces.
