00:51On 9th May, I was unlawfully arrested by the police as well as rangers from the premises of Islamabad High Court.

00:57Now, I will leave more details and tell you.

00:59He says, the brutal manner of my arrest resulted in peaceful protests.

01:04As a result of my arrest, peaceful protests were held on 9th May.

01:08Peaceful protests were held all over the country.

01:10Miscreants were added to these protests by those seeking to take advantage of the situation.

01:17So, this resulted in various incidents of break-in, break-in and damage to property.

01:30that had nothing to do with my party or its policies.

01:34So, this resulted in various incidents of break-in, break-in and damage to property.

01:38So, this resulted in various incidents of break-in and damage to property

01:43that had nothing to do with my party or its policies of peaceful protests.

01:48The reaction of the state was repressive.

01:51The events of 9th May were used as a pretext to arrest thousands of members and supporters of PTI across the country.

01:59This is the position of Mr. Khan today.

02:01Our people demonstrated peace.

02:03Miscreants were added to these protests.

02:05Of course, he is pointing towards the institutions.

02:06They were added to these protests.

02:07As a result of this, the break-in took place.

02:11And then it was taken advantage of.

02:13And thousands of our people were put behind bars.

02:15Mr. Ali Amin Gandapur, the government says that they have agreed in the Muzakirati Committee

02:19that our people have crossed the line.

02:21Our people had crossed the line.

02:22I agree.

02:23Punish them, but not as much as they deserve.

02:25Don't punish them more than that.

02:27We don't know what was said in the committee.

02:29But you know what was said on camera.

02:31We had an interview with him two weeks ago.

02:33What did he say in that interview? You listen.

02:34Then we will talk.

02:35Let's see what Mr. Ali Amin Gandapur said about 9th May.

02:38We don't disown many of our people.

02:41They were foolish.

02:42They made a mistake.

02:43They got into trouble.

02:44At least I don't disown them.

02:46They were my people.

02:48They were our party's people.

02:49And they should be punished or they should be forgiven.

02:51See, the punishment for a mistake is according to the law.

02:55Right.

02:56That should be given.

02:57I don't disown a mistake.

02:58Yes.

02:59If I have a person, because of his foolishness,

03:01because of his mistake,

03:02because of his foolishness,

03:03because of his emotions.

03:04If he has done something.

03:05If he has crossed a line,

03:06then he should be punished for crossing that line.

03:09He should be punished.

03:10A mistake doesn't mean that you make it illegal.

03:13You become selfish and go to the extent of killing someone.

03:17Sometimes you shoot someone.

03:18Sometimes you torture someone.

03:19You torture someone of that level.

03:22This is the whole story.
