Maulana Fazlur Rahman announced a boycott of the Supreme Court hearing and also refused to sit with Imran Khan.
The President of the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) and the head of the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (JUI), Maulana Fazlur Rehman, has announced a boycott of the Supreme Court's three-member bench, headed by Chief Justice Omar Ata Bandial. He has also stated that no party leader or representative will appear in the Supreme Court on Thursday for any judicial matter.
Maulana has taken the leadership of the Pakistan People's Party (PPP) into confidence and stated that Parliament had expressed a vote of no-confidence in the bench that has caused a dispute, according to their agreement.
Another significant development is that the President of the PDM has clearly refused to sit with the Chairman of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), Imran Khan.
According to sources, a PPP delegation met Maulana near his ancestral home in Dera Ismail Khan, but the delegation could not convince Maulana to hold talks with the PTI.
Maulana informed the guests that his party had decided to distance itself from the Supreme Court's proceedings.
Sources say that Bilawal Bhutto returned from Dera Ismail Khan and had an important meeting with Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif on his return. The Prime Minister has made it clear to Bilawal Bhutto that they respect Maulana Fazlur Rehman's opinion as Imran Khan and his party's views are not correct according to the Maulana.
They said that they respect the opinion of Maulana as the President of the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) and will meet him in Dera Ismail Khan next week after the Eid holidays.
Sources say that Maulana Fazlur Rehman will announce his position on Thursday morning. Bilawal Bhutto also conveyed a message from Asif Zardari to Maulana.
Maulana has decided to call a meeting of the parties included in the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) in Islamabad next week, after which the ruling coalition will hold its own meeting, chaired by Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif.
Sources say that the President of the PDM informed the incoming guests that Imran Khan is an untrustworthy person and not a political figure, and who will guarantee that they will not go back on their promises. Bilawal Bhutto had expressed his opinion that the door to negotiations in politics should not be closed.
Maulana had said that Imran Khan is not a political figure, he is an agent of foreign powers and a puppet of Jews. Upon your insistence, I will consult with my party once and then give a definite answer. He advised not to have any positive expectations from negotiations with Imran Khan.
During this time, the spokesperson for the JUI, Islam Ghori, urged political parties to stage a protest. It is strange that efforts are being made to save Imran Khan's sinking ship.

He said that no one can guess what destruction is hidden behind good words like dialogue.
He said that whatever JUI had said in the past about Imran Khan has proven to be true. He said that JUI has never refused negotiations, but the question is whether PTI is a political party or not.
They asked if political parties have assessed the losses caused by judicial decisions? We despise the remnants of political martial law. They asked if they have evaluated the consequences of the judicial martial law?
