Lodge FIRs against Rana Sanaullah, Imran tells PTI workers.

'Rana [Sanaullah] is more of a terrorist than an interior minister and this coward would be proceeded against for hurling threats on my life,' Mr Khan said while talking to Kazim Khan, president of the Council of Pakistan Newspapers Editors.

'He [Rana Sanaullah] is rather preparing the ground for my political or physical elimination as he is the key player. He is one of the three characters, who are after my life: both political and physical.

Says he is ready to attend MPC if election date on agenda

Later in a televised address, the former PM said if elections are delayed beyond April 30, even for a day, it would mean there is no constitution or law in the country and his party would resist any such move.

Mr Khan also reiterated his readiness to attend a multi-party conference (MPC) if convened to discuss mechanism and date for elections. 'I am ready to sit with anyone and all of those who are prepared to hold elections within the Constitution.'

The PTI chairman warned that events would quickly spiral out of everyone's hands and state and society would suffer an irreparable loss, if the 'neutrals' did not stop backing 'thieves'...
