I learnt of my father Shah Mahmood Qureshi's fall from family after they met him in Kot Lakhpat jail today. Three and half years ago a hale and hearty lion heart was sent to jail on trumped up charges. He not only fought the cypher case with resolve and courage but refused to sacrifice his principles at the altar of self interest. For over two years he has been in Kot Lakhpat jail now facing ludicrous and false charges relating to 9th May. He has been acquitted multiple times but remain behind bars due to the government's malafide. Over 90 bail hearings have gone by but the record has yet to be produced. A man whose innocence has been proven again and again is being held prisoner because the court is being a mockery of. It is high time the judge establish his authority and grant Shah Mahmood Qureshi bail. My father has devoted more than four decades of his life to Pakistan. He has served twice as Pakistan's Foreign Minister, and as Parliamentary Leader and Vice Chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, he has fulfilled important responsibilities and protected Pakistan's interest. He has fought for the supremacy of the Constitution and democracy. He deserves justice and freedom. I request everyone to please pray for his health, long life and release from unjust imprisonment.
