00:00He was one of the nine people who were arrested that day by the National Assembly or the Parliament.
00:08And not only was he arrested, but the government was criticized a lot.
00:14How can the government or government institutions, state institutions, police or whoever went inside,
00:22how can they go inside? How can they arrest?
00:26How can parliamentarians be arrested from inside the parliament?
00:30Let's ask them how they got to the fourth floor.
00:33What happened? Where were these nine people hiding?
00:36When and where did they cough? Why did they come?
00:39Where were they arrested from?
00:41We heard a lot of stories, but I heard that yesterday the Speaker also fed the nine people, the PTI people.
00:46Yesterday when we were bailed out, the Speaker invited the nine or ten people for lunch in the office.
00:53After lunch, we all came back to our jails and we were released from there.
01:03What were you saying?
01:05The Speaker...
01:07What did the Speaker say?
01:09He said, I am equally saddened by your loss.
01:11I think this is such a big event, the 9th of September, that the entire nation should be saddened.
01:19Because each and every person was a representative of 10-11 lakh people.
01:23And we belonged to the party that has won crores of votes,
01:28which has taken the biggest mandate in Pakistan,
01:31which had a majority in the real assembly of that party.
01:38So we were the real representatives of Pakistan.
01:40So the nation should be saddened by this.
01:44And it was true.
01:45A lot of people's prayers reached us.
01:47I am saying this because the Speaker was saddened by this.
01:52To be honest, I saw it when he spoke in the National Assembly.
01:57But then the news came that IG has followed Kamini protocol.
02:01Tariq Fazal Chaudhary said that the Speaker was informed.
02:05Whether it was Tariq Fazal or IG,
02:08when the IG statement came, we spoke to the Speaker.
02:11IG was saying that all the procedures have been followed, you have given permission.
02:16And when we spoke to him about Tariq Fazal,
02:18he said in clear words that he was lying.
02:21The Speaker said that he was lying and he should be ashamed.
02:25These were the words.
02:26How can you say that the biggest procedure is that you will take permission from the Speaker?
02:31Absolutely.
02:32Not only that, you know that after the amendment came,
02:36Parliament Lodges is also a part of the Assembly President.
02:39And all this is one.
02:40So obviously, a lot has happened.
02:43Now what can I share with you?
02:45He was also ashamed that when the Custodian of the House,
02:50in his presence, in his custodianship,
02:53the representatives of the crores of people of this country,
02:57from within the Parliament,
02:59you used the word arrest.
03:01Let me correct a little.
03:03Abduction.
03:04Abduction.
03:05Abduction was done.
03:07Sir, it was not abduction, it was arrest.
03:09I will say abduction because after that you were remanded and a legal process started.
03:14Sir, whoever the kidnappers were, they handed us over to the police.
03:17Now the FIR should be on the kidnappers and the police.
03:20The police also told us where they have arrested us from.
03:23Just by taking us out of the Cabinet Division,
03:26while taking us out, making videos there and spreading it in the media,
03:30this is not the meaning.
03:31As we say, Mr. Imran Khan says that
03:34with reference to 9th May, that you take out CCTV footage.
03:37We also say that you take out the CCTV footage of the National Assembly.
03:42Because this incident is a national incident.
03:46This is an international incident.
03:48This did not even happen to us in the time of MashaAllah.
03:51Many doors have passed in front of you in your life.
03:55I don't think that by going inside like this,
03:58in the darkness of the night,
04:00I want to talk about all this,
04:02but I think you have been given bail yesterday.
04:04Yes, bail.
04:05I don't know how the judge gave you bail.
04:07You killed an ASI.
04:09Ali Ameen snatched the Kalashnikov from the police.
04:12That's how it is.
04:13Shoaib Shahi snatched the pistol.
04:15Barrister Gaur snatched the wireless set.
04:17He is such a powerful man.
04:19You beat up the police and on top of that you were given bail.
04:22Sir, look, when all this remand was challenged in the High Court,
04:26the High Court judge,
04:28especially the judge who has a history of our party,
04:31you heard his comments.
04:33He said that this is a script of a comedy film.
04:36Now when a Chief Justice is saying this,
04:38obviously the sense prevails and it goes down to the lower court.
04:42That lower court,
04:44you know that the biggest terrorists,
04:46the biggest killers, the bombers,
04:48they are given a remand of 8-10 days.
04:50We know that Ali Ameen was given a remand of 8 days.
04:52I think you should cut it.
04:54You opened the Kalashnikov.
04:56The police opened the pistol.
04:58You thought that the Kalashnikov, the pistol,
05:00the wireless set.
05:02What were you planning to do?
05:04We lost all these things.
05:06We lost the footage.
05:08Where was the media? Where was the TV channel?
05:10Sir, were you wearing a mask?
05:12No, we were not wearing a mask.
05:14The one who kidnapped us,
05:16he was definitely wearing a mask.
05:18All of you were in the assembly.
05:20You were arrested.
05:22Hamid Raza Sahib was also there.
05:24Why didn't you arrest him?
05:26Actually, because the whole assembly was locked.
05:28The reason is that when we were
05:30not in contact with the Speaker,
05:32he was saying that at least
05:34open the opposition chamber,
05:36the leader's chamber,
05:38or open our nose lobby,
05:40which we did not open.
05:42It is a pity, but you did not open anything.
05:44No, we did not open anything.
05:46I don't know, his hands were tied
05:48or he was under some pressure
05:50that he could not open it.
05:52He said, there are no keys,
05:54people are sleeping,
05:56I personally think that
05:58he did not have anything in his hands.
06:00His hands were tied.
06:02He did not have anything in his hands.
06:04His feet were also tied.
06:06I will continue from here.
06:08So, the chambers that were open,
06:10I saw your video.
06:12I will try to run it,
06:14if I can.
06:16All of you were eating.
06:18Where were they sitting?
06:20When we were going out,
06:22they were trying to lock it.
06:24We had called Sheikh Sahib for the program.
06:26Yes, we had called him.
06:28A message had come from Sheikh Sahib
06:30due to police situation.
06:32I could not come due to police situation.
06:34And the phone was switched off.
06:36When the roads were closed,
06:38I read your message.
06:40I said, now you are afraid
06:42that there will be arrests.
06:44When did you feel that
06:46there will be arrests?
06:48We did not feel for a minute
06:50that we will be arrested
06:52Did you feel that you will be arrested today?
06:54Yes, when we came out,
06:56the meeting was over.
06:58We were sitting in the car.
07:00We came to know that Mr. Marwad
07:02was arrested very rudely.
07:04So, we decided
07:06that we will talk to the speaker
07:08that if police wants to arrest someone,
07:10then we are ready.
07:12Remember this.
07:14We are ready.
07:16We will go out.
07:18You can arrest us.
07:20For this, we sent our chief
07:22VIP to the bar.
07:24We came inside.
07:26We sent our chief VIP to the bar.
07:28There is a video on social media
07:30that he is telling the police
07:32that which MNA do you want?
07:34You tell us.
07:36We will hand over the MNAs to you.
07:38We had decided this.
07:40We did not want this kind of
07:42rudeness to happen.
07:44And the answer he gave
07:46was also on social media.
07:48You can do whatever you want.
07:50We will take whatever we want.
07:52I wanted selected MNAs.
07:54We were aware of this.
07:56Later, all the MNAs who were inside
07:58were arrested.
08:00Sir, tell me this.
08:02You were 9 people.
08:04Now, you are 2.
08:06Did you plan this?
08:08No, no.
08:10Coincidentally, the people
08:12who were close to us
08:14used to talk to each other.
08:16There was no open space
08:18where 9 people could gather.
08:20Our Maulana Naseeb
08:22was in the mosque.
08:24He did not even know that
08:26someone had come.
08:28He brought him here.
08:30After that, Mr. Chatha
08:32and Mr. Awais
08:34went to the second floor.
08:36They found an empty room.
08:38Similarly, Mr. Shafqat Awan
08:40and Mr. Sabzara
08:42also went to an empty room.
08:44Mr. Kashyap,
08:46most of the rooms were locked.
08:48Did Mr. Awais ask for a phone?
08:50Yes, Mr. Awais.
08:52He asked for a phone from everyone.
08:54Coincidentally, only me and
08:56Mr. Zain Qureshi were there.
08:58When we found out that you were outside,
09:00we brought our phones.
09:02So, you made your phone disappear.
09:04You were asking for his password.
09:06Yes.
09:08When he did not give the password,
09:10I handled it.
09:12How did you reach the second floor?
09:14Mr. Dogar was not in a pair.
09:16He stayed downstairs.
09:18He was alone.
09:20Mr. Yusuf Khan was also
09:22coming out of the lobby.
09:24He was also alone.
09:26Everyone said that you two
09:28naturally separated.
09:30Someone went to the mosque
09:32and you two hid in the room.
09:34Listen to me.
09:36When we repeatedly told the police
09:38to come out and arrest us,
09:40there was something fishy.
09:42As soon as the guards came
09:44at 1.45 pm and told me
09:46that the masked men had come,
09:48it was more than fishy.
09:50You know what happened
09:52before and after 9th May.
09:54People were confused.
09:56They said that we were not
09:58going to be arrested on record.
10:00The person who had to protect himself
10:02did it and it was his right.
10:04There was no doubt that
10:06in this August House,
10:08where we did not even think
10:10that such a thing could happen
10:12because it did not happen
10:14even in the court of God.
