Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Sohail Afridi presented a draft with seven demands during negotiations with the federal government. Afridi asserted that none of the demands were unconstitutional or illegal. However, his claims were disputed by Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, who suggested Afridi's draft was an attempt to disrupt an already agreed draft.
Afridi's seven-point draft called for regular meetings between the prime minister and opposition leaders, the formation of a joint political negotiation committee, and improved legal, human, and medical rights for former Prime Minister Imran Khan and his wife. Afridi also demanded expedited legal proceedings for prisoners, including Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi, and the release of women serving political sentences.
Naqvi dismissed Afridi's version of events, alleging that Afridi's draft was intended to derail previously agreed upon measures. Naqvi further claimed that the KP government had withdrawn from commitments related to counterterrorism measures during final negotiations.
