- Pakistan's former prime minister, Imran Khan, told DW in an exclusive interview that the government in Islamabad was trying to kill him because he threatens its grip on power.
"They are threatened. They know elections. They cannot compete. And so their motive was to get me out of the way. They tried other ways. They tried to disqualify me, put terrorism cases on me."
Khan told DW: "The people who are threatened the most, who would want me to be eliminated, is the current government."
Khan, a former national cricket hero who served as Pakistan's prime minister from August 2018 until April 2022, was injured on November 3, while leading a protest for early elections.
Khan sustained three bullet wounds to his leg and thighs in an attack that killed one of his supporters and injured 14 more.

#Pakistan #ImranKhan
jeez he one lucky man...u have a guardian angel....be more careful of ur surroundings, if i heard right these are powerful ennemies u got
Finally somebody is asking the right questions 👏...
But Khan is still beating about bush
He always did that. But amazing fellow haha 😂
Those questions are really wrong. The Bolsanaro comment gives her away as nothing but a typical desk reporter who has not done her research before talking to someone. Very immature interviewer.
@@eramzehra7093 what is wrong with these questions ??? And what about his answers??? All he said what he is saying is right and he could never be wrong.
You are absolutely right no body asks such questions in Pakistan imran khan gives interviews only to his favourite and pro pti journalists and they didn't ask the real and hard questions
A brave leader, not afraid of corrupt and brutal military dictator like General Bajwa and and criminal like Major General Faisal Naseer.
As an Indian, how I hope that Imran Khan becomes the prime minister for life of Pakistan. I hope that he’s as beneficial to the people of Pakistan as he has been to the people of India.
We PAKISTANis don't want him to PM of Pakistan, he is power hungry with zero performance, he only makes false promises
My dear as a Pakistani I want Imran and his politics dead in Pakistan. He was a puppet PM. His government was installed by the military establishment by rigging the elections. Imran Khan democratically ousted by a vote of no confidence in the Parliament. He is a Donald Trump of Pakistan. I am very hopeful that his politics is about end as he iwill be fully exposed.
@@rubiashaikh4263 ur clearly in a minority. From the looks of it seems that he has massive support
Well that certainly is not how your Govt or media look at it. Ironically, I hope the same for Modi, after which Amit Shah.
Is this belief common among other Indian citizens? I'm trying to understand. I know so little about India and Pakistan's citizenry and what they want these days.
I know there is tension between the two nations, which I hope dies down. Both countries stand to play big roles in the 21st century. I hope to one day visit them both.
Happy to see that this former Prime-Minister survived this attempt on his life.
Of course he did it was his plan.
@@viper5006 that was not his plan. That was plan of God.
She didn’t ask any questions that pushed him. I feel he got an easy ride here tbh.
@@Poopdeck1015 and what would have been a "hard question" in light of your impeccable intellect?
@@annon91221 maybe start with, ‘‘why didn’t you push for Pakistan to change its national laws, so that the PM can impose localized measures on regions outside of the PMs own constituency?’. Currently, unlike other nations, lack of progress in the country is due because of that.
There is no need to be sarcastic. We can have a civil debate without leaving impertinent comments about someone you don’t know.
When you speak the truth, words flow like water
Love from Malaysia to Imran Khan❤ Speed recovery👍
OPS has just published a motivational video in support of the long march. They also have given IMRAN Khan "CPATAIN PAKISTAN" title in the video. They have published this video at FUN Pets CANADA 🇨🇦 channel.
Big respect to this man for trying to change corrupt system!
O GOD he is just talking . When it comes on doing. He's biggest zero.
Corruption was highest during his tenure particularly in Punjab.
Interviewing a notorious person ironically is quite challenging,
Great Job!
An interview with Imran Khan???
Now that's some hot stuff
It's a shame DW can't find interviewers worthy of their guests. DW interviewers are so freaking rude!
And she failed
🤣🤣🤣
Allah may protect Ik
@@shahinasiddiqui4475 🤣😂😅
An honest person who is trying to bring change.
Most Honest in the history of Pakistan selling national state gifts to make millions, stopping foreign funding case for 7 years, travelling 126 after so called 4 bullets and not going to nearby hospitals, misuse of helicopter in millions of dollars state expense on his political rallies, and so on. Biggest culprit ever.
He’s a statesman. Respect from Canada
Stuntman 🤣
Brave Man! I know who plotted too
I had doubts whether Imran was the right leader for Pakistan. But after seeing more Indians here in the comments section than Pakistanis, I would advise Pakistan people to stick with Imran Khan! If Indians resent and mock a Pakistan political leader then you know he is the right guy to lead Pakistan!
Actually, he is RAW agent. I don't know why Indians are hating him. He is working to undermine Pak military and Pak political-judicial establishment. Pakistanis should know this.
Indians are actually supporting Imran Khan rather mocking him... The Damage he had done and still doing to Pakistan they could have never done it ...
@@dhruvinghelani7576 hmm when he was in power he was against 😂
Indians know if he will in power ..he will always in fight mode with west and America in order to satisfy his ego at the end of the he is an egoist personality . dealing with international relations its not like playing in home condition that's where imran khan will fail ..which eventually benefits indians
Damn right you are!! Thanks
Watching from Belize central america I'm from and i always thought Mr Imran Kahn former president of Pakistan was a bad person but now he's in opposition i see him as a humble and good person who the elites are trying to eliminate for some reason!! Long live Imran Kahn!!✌🏽🙏🌎🌍
He's always been great, whether in or out of power.
Superb
He is complete opposite, when he was in rule, religious extremism increased. Press freedom was curbed and tries to bring draconian law against press. People disappearance increased. He ruined Pakistan international relationship world wide and lied and made u turns on almost every thing
@@tricky4amit lol, stop lying.
He is a playboy who wants to play pm pm. He ruined Pakistan. Army had to replace him because he was ruining relationship with his bad mouthing countries
He is the man of integrity but lacks patience when it comes to country’s future, he is our favourite person to rule Pakistan, not current regime nor Army.
Dear Melissa Chan, Thank you so much for hosting this interview with our brave and loyal leader Imran khan. ❤️
He has same determined statement
May he be succeed in achieving his goals🥺
He is very Brave Leader ❤️ that's why he is fighting alone against 16 Corrupt parties of Pakistan
hahaha..youthias and their belief...you people are a laughing object globally..imran khan is not able to answer even single question...this man is a national embarrassment for failed country pakistan...THANK YOU JINNAH FOR PARTITION
Truly a once-in-a-generation leader, the first Pakistani leader since Jinnah to have the courage, eloquence and vision to bring about positive change in the face of insurmountable challenges. May he remain safe, though I fear that there will be yet more attempts to eliminate him by the Pakistani military establishment backed by American interests.
Ameen Summa Ameen Yaa Rabul Alameen
@@MNMian sumac gas oh no by by t do I buyer
Jinnah was a coward.
Excellent interview, DW reporter asked some searching questions. Khan gave an honest account of the situation in Pakistan.
DW you must require your interviewer to show more respect toward a country leader, particularly a person who has just survived an assassination attempt. Imran is a respectful person and common decency should be shown by a representative of DW. Implying he is a liar is very poor to say the least
She didn't imply he is a liar. She needs to ask tough questions. Imran couldn't always give her a direct answer. I think Imran was also fine with the interview. At the moment he isn't a country leader. You should show respect but you should be allowed to ask any question. She didn't insult him. What you are suggesting will eventually just lead to terrible censorship. You know people like Honecker never gave an interview like that when in power they would censor it and kill the person asking the question destroying free journalism.
absolutely agree with you....
Respectful person 😂😂😂😂
He sold gifts from foreign dignitaries in the market. That's shameful.
@@champ1007 look whoz talking, one who supports leaders who took al the gifts for free ,rather then imran ,who paid for them .dabbo mian ab na hopayega aap se .
I m from Pakistan
Whole nation demands lmran khan should PM of pakistan.
Most famous person in pakistan
He is hopefully going to change everything
The long run chaos spread by military
Hopefully the power will go to the people rather than dictator generals
Love from England
who are you?
Really impressed from anchor knowledge. All Questions were very much logical and relevant.
She didn’t uncover much to be honest. These questions were asked a million times before in the west and IK didn’t seem tested at all.
She might as well have just interviewed herself. She wasn't really into letting her guest respond.
@@theobserver9131 it was more a platform for her to show how edgy she was. But she wasn’t.
He is not former PM. He is our PM. The great man❤️❤️❤️
In that case your right place would be in a mental asylum.
Brave man. We proud of u.. 🐆
He answered her tough questions logically.
These questions are biased AF! Interviewer losses credibility with every question about the victims motive. No interest shown about particulars of what he says he knows. Terrible job DW. Horrible reporting.
Not bullets per his own doctor... just fragments. He keeps saying bullets.
Have you ever had shrapnel in your body cracking your bone. Irrespective what it was. Misinformation is new weapon in the hands of rich & powerful i.e. Trump
The US installed government did it
Source: it was revealed to me in a dream
At least it was not the USA who did it
@@scarybird977
The fact is, they do indulge in regime changes. Check it out.
The ambassador in the US was told Khan is unacceptable in Govt to them.
Stop blaming US for your own mess.
How many dads does Pakistan have?
🇮🇳🇺🇸🇨🇳: *YES*
Giving interview at local media and giving interview abroad are two different flavors. Be competent enough to answer foreign journalists.
Can you plz tell what are the answers he not gives with the competent🤔
The moment bullet missed the target agencies lost the game against IK
This reporter is coming for him. She doesn't know Pakistani politics the people know. IK knows. Ik is not to blame for wanting to male Pakistan a better country
Doesn’t matter how horrible he is(or “not”) or what he does, he should get that independent investigation, considering that he is the major opposition and there was an assassination attempt on him.
lady. Ain't no Leader like Khan in the world
@@ayanalmighty true, he is the living successor of Quid e azam. I would say he's even surpassed our Quid aswell but that would make me feel bad
@@justArandomfellar
Hahaha Muhammad Ali Jinnah was himself a greedy person and you are attributing greed with imran by saying him the successor of M.A Jinnah
@@sqamarabbas11 if you mean he was greedy for independence, then you are absolutely right. 😁
@@justArandomfellar He was greedy to sit on the throne. He was greedy for power.
Well done 👏
I don't know what to think of this guy, but I hope he heals well and that Pakistan can prove they can move beyond this.
also a world champion
He's a great guy. The corrupt are desperate to have him eliminated as they already did that to a journalist in Kenya who was working on a documentary to expose their corruption, its called, 'Behind Closed Doors'.
He didn't got hit by bullet.. Bullet burst hit his legs
@@dineshedemol8138 thats the same thing.
@Dinesh Edemol all I said was that I hope he heals well. I never said anything about his injuries.

By the time millions of Pakistanis in England not your average Brit
@@UnbrokenWillll Yes, don't worry, you can go cheer for Sunak.

India is also concerned about it's raw agent Imran khan.. long live Imran!
proud of you sir
Hats off to the interviewer for her patience.
More like hats off to the interviewee/assassination attempt victim - Imran Khan..
@@JerryAlatalo an indiot will be an indiot - he/she probably didn’t even understand what you said there! 😂
a great leader
We will strive hard to bring him back in power to stop this ruling elite from lootimg money from our country Pakistan! May ALLAH protect him from harm always.
PLEASE KEEP YOUR SELF AND YOUR PATHAN IMRAN KHAN AWAY FROM PUNJAB, NO MORE THIEVES AND LOOTERS FROM AFGHANISTAN
Khan should take proper safety measurers after what happened. He is so indifferent to simple, common sense security.
Take all precautions to save yourself & importantly, others around you. Be responsible to people around you, they should not suffer.
I don't think he's worried about his safety. I think he's just trying to do what he thinks is right, and let the world respond as it will. Seems to be a man of faith, who accepts his fate.
If you die while trying to help people, your actions continue to have power even after you have gone.
Excellent interview by bravest honest courageous leader of Pakistan
An excellent interview
Pakistan is in the wrong hands of The Army. We need someone like Imran Khan to have the complete power and spend money on education rather than defense. The entire world should support Imran Khan to get to power.
complete power is how things go bad
He had his chance.. was Pakistan moving in the right direction? Being owned by China?
@@lettucesalad3560 it wasn't owned by China and if thats a concern for you then the current corrupt government, or shall I say the government that has unjustly held power for a total of about 30 years is already taking loans and asking for conceasions from China.
@@lettucesalad3560 and no he never had his chance, a family ruling over 30 years is incomparable to a man who did not even get to complete his term as a PM.
He handle Paxistan for 4 yrs just abusing pm Modi india RSS and hindu using hindutva done nothing, under taliban khan economy suffering people is suffering from high inflation.
Oh...these reporters.....ask sensible questions
Disappointed with the low quality of DW's journalist. Somebody should teach her how to interview people.
I am Indian 🇮🇳 and i love Imran Khan, big fan of Imran Khan ✅👍 The Indian Subcontinent & South East Asia needs leaders like him and my PM Modi 🇮🇳 ✅👍👍👍
These two fascists are not needed. They are the last thing sub continent needs.
Great 👍 interview 👏
Good questions and logical replies.
Hypocrite asking about his health after reporting he is "Capitalizing" on the assassination attempt.
He has totally lost it😩, she asked about why didn't you remove them when you were in house, and he was stuck at shooting
oh really? which was that part where he said NAB was controlled by the establishment and he had a weaker Government with lesser power? Oh u missed that? so its your fault not Khans🤬
D.W interviewer more lnterested in asking biased questions than listening to the reply
Lol I love how he accuse his opponent of robbing the country for 30 year even thought he was the head of government at those times
What nonsense… he was only in power for3.5 years. The two corrupt mafia families have ruled Pakistan for 40 years and Pakistan as not shown any progress due to massive corruption
He was martial law supporter,taliban supporter, china supporter ,anti west,anti US
@@tigerlily456 yeah what did he do on those 3.5 years then? No anti corruption campaign, no major change in tax or land reforms. He only play the corruption card when he loses in a power struggle
He has only been the head of government for three years. Get your facts straight before giving judgement.
@@MohammedAli-di3mw 3 year s alot of time for him to do nothing
Great and honest leader imran khan. Star of pakistan. Great mallisa ur brave .and sport pakistan. Every pakistani love imran khan
1002 yes I kept having to explain to my own country guys politics and government are different

Love from india - may our asset become PM from life
How did this guy became leader of pakistan at one point? Sound like the crazy contractor that screw up my remodel job.
What a great interviewer!Melissa Chan !
No doubt imran Khan is great and honest leader his vision is very clear that rule of law is the first priority..in future he will become prime minister of Pakistan he wills tranform the Pakistan in that form which u couldn't imagine.. inshallah
I could see Imran getting re-elected again.
How is this interview "Exclusive" if he has given it to every other news channel?
Facts remain the same- Facts can not be different for different channels.
This man is a big player
He can play year of years with words
Patwari
Because that's all he has. Words. And he uses them
He has started civil war in Pakistan with his Tongue. He turned friends into enemies. He cut Pakistan from friends. Shareif is begging and collecting more money than Imran khan. Pakistan is out of FATF. Imran khan was not able to do anything. So he was sacked
He is very brave❤️That's why he is fighting alone against 16 Corrupt parties of Pakistan
What was all this fuss about this interview in Pakistani media, I just watched it and Khan did well, I mean really well, to tough questions from Melissa. It was a great interview.
I thought the sherlock Holmes comment was extremely immature. This guy is telling you that he has circumstantial evidence plus intelligence information that his assassination was plotted by the government and establishment. It is the job of the investigative officers to find out whether his claims are correct or not after carrying out a detailed investigation of the chain of events and the crime scene plus what follows afterwards. If the govt is innocent why are they not letting him file a report to the police? Every citizen has the right to file a report to the police and name the suspect, and they do not have to present "hard evidence" as you ask for. Then the police will carry out the investigation and provide "hard evidence". Its been like 10 days and still the police is not filing his complaint. If citizens have to provide "hard evidence" before registering a complaint to the police, what are the investigation teams for?
Great leader khan 👏 ❤❤❤❤
HA HAM WHY SUCH A LASH PROTOCOL IS GIVEN TO HIS TWO SONS IN PAKISTAN, IN "KAFERS" COUNTRY SUCH TYPE OF PRACTICES ARE NOT ALLOWED, AND YOUR LEADER IS NEW PROPHET OF "REYAST E MADINA" WITH HIS NEW CORRUPT RULES FOR NEW ISLAM? WOW
Very informative interview. Dw you made very deep questions. This really awesome. But Khan answered well.
Thanks
Anchor was amazing and asked on point and logically. Imran khan was actually speechless in front of her. I'm amazed by her knowledge.
Your Right💯👍
Pakistan will develop better within the leadership of Imran khan😎
Awesome knowledgable and witty person this guy is... He answers everything so pleasantly, true leader...
according to new thinking all leaderships must come with their groups and do away with earlier ones, otherwise it shall never work at least in most important portfolios from central power seats.
We love imran Khan more than anything.... 😘😘😍😍
The issue is most political leaders are not honest. Imran is brutally honest person leading a good cause. He's surrounded by the worse of the worst.
You are absolutely correct! I think he is the best leader for Pakistan. He is very honest, he did everything for the good of his people and country when he was the PM. He is a selfless man! He did not take advantage of his position when he was the PM to fill up his pocket with money. Above all, he took out his own money to build the cancer hospital! Very Unfortunately, other politicians are too corrupted and turned their backs on him, partly because US , ,ight have played a role in getting him removed because they tried to persuade Imran to side with them against China and Imran said that would mean jeopardizing a-70 year old relationship that Pakistan has with China and he did not listen to US, unlike Indian PM, would do anything to kiss up to US!I hope God will protect Imran from the evils and punish the evil politicians!
Pakistan's politics & criminal justice system is entirely different from other countries of the world, in politics, vote doesn't elect rather counting hands decides who stood elected, while in criminal justice system, only the criminals are employed as police officials, they temper verbatism of victim, they delay in registration of crime as, all incriminatory evidence could disappear from crime scene, sadly in those case, where ruling party has interest,in such criminal cases material evidence is deliberately disloged from prosecution file, honesty cease to work in such circumstances, thank God, Imran miraculously survive else uncalled reason could have been saddled with tragic mishap; as pray of prayers was distrub by protesters thus such reason motivated assassin to assassinate I.K , Quaid Azam was denied of transport to reach hospital died in T.B, Liquat Ali Khan was assassinated, Zulifaquar Bhutto was hanged under allegation of abetting offence later on, it revealed no offence ever stood committed ultimately in these days apex court too, admits that assassination of bhutto was judicial killing, Banazir bhutto was assassinated, not to speak any single culprit escapes prosecution, were there any single arrest ever made,, life, property protection only prescribe in constitution with specific articles,however in real life highly influential public figure like former PM has been targeted includes other PTI leaderes, while one of protestor, pro imran was mistakenly murdered; apart from this stock attacker was arrested, while FIR has still been not registered by those who stood targated rather police being state registers crime, killers shall remain invisible, none crime is registerd against them nor they fear their arrest; even any else in crime else, if arrested, he seeks release by paying prosecution & courts, our judicial system runs to hold & contain poor while rich r above catch & hold of our judiciary...It's rudderlessly going, how long this is going by what mode !! nothing is certain !!! Nothing is there to make it certain in mmediate future???
It’s still better than Iran. Otherwise you are free to enter Iran whipping yourself. You will run back to Pakistan 🇵🇰 after just 48 hours in Iran !
Absolutely right
A Good Sport Player is a Special kind of Person... The same cannot be repeated for Leaders of Countries or Economies...
Excellent interview, brilliant questions,worst answers
Why were they worst answers? pls specify
Wasting your time. Pierce Morgan asked great questions, watch his interview with IK.
The other bullet was your Gaurds bullet video is available on you tube
Awesome interview..
And you exposed his lies in a very professional way...
What lies?
@@pakistan6402 leave the indiot alone and let him have his moment of glory in the UA-cam comments section! 😂😂
You are mentally disadvantaged to think Imran Khan is lying. He gave his answers genuinely because he believes what he is saying is the truth. Shehbaz and Nawaz Sharif will never even dare to attend an interview with an independent media company, answering pressing questions, because these thieves know that they’ll get cooked, just how they avoid attending court for corruption cases. Do we want these cowards running our country? Absolutely not.
It's astounding people still think it's a good interview on his end.
Dude couldn't answer anything straight.
I don’t understand why people like you are praising the journalist and criticising IK for no reason.
Good job DW
From the video footage it can be seen that other than the attacker, one more person also fired from his rifle and he was the guard of imran khan sitting on top the container 1🤣
he has no evidence
First honest interview by Imran Khan and he is exposed badly... nice work DW
Patwari spotted
Your pfp is fitting, joker...

@@ahmedwaqar6767 yes bro right interviewer
Great Leader & Brave Man !!!
🤮
248 that's the problem everything except the fact we're talking right now is circumstantial when you get to this level of judicial hierarchy on Church versus state
May ALLAH protect Imran Khan and grant him speedy recovery, and may ALLAH punish those responsible of such cowardly acts. because what happening is a farce made by American rotten influence, Pakistan 🇵🇰 people must put an ends to it by an early election 🗳
Absolutely right.
Love from the US 🇺🇸
That's typical of Pakistani PMs, they couldn't deliver an iota of a thing and after coming out of power they put all blame of establishment. For example, in his tenure, Imran didn't bother to pursue Model Town case in which current PM and Interior Minister are alleged and now he's using it for its political purpose. Similarly, the case Malik Riaz's case, a Pakistani business tycoon, UK froze his assets and returned this money to Pakistan and Pakistani government (Imran's party) returned the money to Malik Riaz in Pakistan.And the then interior minister Fawad CH said we'll not reveal the details of this money settlement. That's how he protected the elite in his tenure and now he's campaigning against it.
Imran Khan great leader. Brave man. May Allah keep him safe.
How come he not mention "American intervention" that ousted him !? 😂 He keeps a different script when he's talking to international media 😂
Then you have not watched his other interviews on international channels. He has categorically stated and explained the US backed coup to oust his government multiple times. This interview was specifically about the assassination incident. Do your research first and have "hard evidence" before you claim somthing
