Rawalpindi [Pakistan], May 4 (ANI): Imran Khan, founder of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), currently detained in Adiala Jail, dismissed any notion of striking a deal for his release. He urged the courts to accelerate the hearings of his cases, underscoring his readiness for dialogue but not compromise, ARY News reported.

"In the past 18 months, I've maintained readiness for talks, but not for deals," Khan affirmed, highlighting his stance against fleeing the country, contrasting it with the actions of figures like Asif Zardari and Nawaz Sharif.
