They also pressed whether he was aware of the content posted from the account that was deemed \u2018anti-state\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy X account, who uses it\u2014I will not disclose,\u201d the PTI founder reportedly told the team, according to sources.<\/p>\n<p>Imran Khan is said to have demanded a written questionnaire from investigators and insisted he would only respond in the presence of his lawyers. The FIA team remained at Adiala Jail for more than an hour, sources added.<\/p>\n<p>The former prime minister had denounced what he termed an &#8216;unconstitutional trial&#8217; inside Adiala Jail and urged supporters to prepare for a mass rally in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P). Authorities described the post as &#8216;anti-state&#8217;\u00a0content, prompting fresh scrutiny into the use of his social media platforms.<\/p>\n<p>In his statement, Khan said: \u201cOver three hundred fabricated cases have been registered against me, all of which I am facing. I will emerge with justice from the courts without making any deal. Every form of oppression has been inflicted upon our party. My wife and I would be freed today if cases were decided on merit.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He accused the government of violating human rights and restricting his access to basic facilities. \u201cMy books are withheld, and in eight months I was allowed to speak to my children only once. The judges in my cases hold no authority; they cannot conduct the trials independently,\u201d he claimed.<\/p>\n<p>Calling the proceedings against him unconstitutional, Khan said: \u201cThis oppressive system cannot endure for long. It is essential that all of you retweet posts from my account, in a clear message of unity and alignment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also directed his party to announce a grand public rally in K-P, saying participants from across the country should gather \u201cto stand together against the darkness that engulfs us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In another post on X, Imran criticised the government\u2019s policy of expelling Afghans from Pakistan and the ongoing military operations in K-P, warning that such measures were costing lives. \u201cBecause of these policies, our own people are being martyred everywhere,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He urged that \u201clasting peace only comes through dialogue. This approach can never establish peace.\u201d He added that \u201cno operation can succeed without the cooperation of stakeholders, nor can any sustainable solution be found.\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Cyber Crimes Wing of the Federal Investigation Agency\u2019s (FIA) on Tuesday initiated an inquiry into the alleged use of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan\u2019s social media account for spreading what officials called an \u2018anti-state narrative\u2019.
