Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Zain Qureshi said on Monday that he chose to go into hiding at the behest of his father, ARY News reported.
In a video statement, Zain revealed that he was ordered to disappear by his father Shah Mehmood Qureshi.
“I could never think of voting for this constitutional amendment,” Zain stated, debunking reports of him supporting the tweaks. He labeled these claims “baseless propaganda.
Zain further explained that his father summoned him to Lahore, where he remains imprisoned in a different case.
According to Zain, his father insisted against approving the constitutional amendment in any case. “Misleading propaganda is being spread against me regarding my support for the constitutional amendment,” he said.
