The arrest of Ali Zaidi was criticized by the PTI leaders including Imran Khan, Shireen Mazari, Sayed Zulfiqar Bukhari, Omar Ayub and others.
Condemning arrest of another PTI leader from Sindh, PTI Chairman Imran Khan termed the arrest part of the “London Plan where Nawaz given assurances PTI would be crushed.”
“ Over 3000 PTI workers arrested, abducted, terrorised. Ali Amin & now Ali Zaidi abducted. A new plan (is) underway for more illegal police plus action in Zaman Park after 27 Ramazan or over Eid,” Imran Khan tweeted.
“ They think this will weaken us in case elections are held. Let me state categorically this will not work. People’s anger only increasing & they will see the blowback of this nefarious London Plan in elections,” the PTI chief added to his tweet.
