Taking to Twitter, Atta said that someone may have misguided Imran Khan over 'Jail Bharo Tehreek'.
In such a movement, bail pleas are withdrawn, he tweeted, questioning if Imran Khan is withdrawing bail pleas in cases related to foreign funding, cypher and Toshakhana.
خان صاحب کو کسی نے شاید جیل بھرو تحریک کا مطلب غلط بتایا ہے۔ ایسی تحریک چلنے پر تمام زیر سماعت اور زیر التوا مقدمات میں درخواست کی ضمانتیں واپس لی جاتی ہیں۔ کیا خان صاحب فارن فنڈنگ کیس، سائفر کیس اور توشہ خانہ کیس میں ضمانت کی درخواستیں واپس لیں گے؟ دیگر رہنما بھی جیل جائیں گے؟

The former prime minister made an announcement of ‘Jail Bharo Tehreek’ to mount pressure on the government for snap polls. In his televised address, Imran Khan asked his party leaders and workers to get ready for the campaign and wait for his call.
He stressed: “We are not scared of getting arrested as millions of people are ready to fill the jails,” he added. The former prime minister said his party could have opted for a nationwide strike but will choose to fill the prisons instead in light of the fears that the country's economy might deteriorate.
