ISLAMABAD: Former Intelligence Bureau Chief Major (retd) Masood Sharif Khattak joined the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Friday.
Khattak who had resigned from the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) in 2007, announced the decision to join the PTI in a press conference at his residence alongside PTI Chairman Imran Khan.
Khattak said the PTI would create a new political culture in Pakistan. He will be running for the National Assembly in the next elections from NA 15 constituency in Karak, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
Aside from Khattak, sources say former PPP stalwart Shah Mehmood Qureshi is expected to resign from his membership to the National Assembly and join the PTI. He is expected to make an official announcement during a rally being held in Kashmore on November 27.
As alliances continue to be forged, the PTI has called a crucial party meeting on November 13 to review its anti-government and anti-Nawaz Sharif campaign and to discuss forging alliances with like-minded groups and parties for the next general election.
