UNS: PTI President Chaudhry Parvez Elahi asserted on Thursday that officials from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the European Union regularly visited the party chairman at Adiala jail, where both are currently held.
Elahi disclosed this during a court appearance related to a money laundering case against him. He expressed confidence in securing a significant number of votes in the upcoming polls.
Elahi emphasised their support for the PTI chief, dismissed allegations against him as baseless, and assured the public of fair elections without rigging.

The court adjourned the hearing until Nov 30.

Notably, this marks Elahi’s twelfth arrest since June in the wake of a crackdown against PTI following the May 9 violence.
