"I remember Shah Mahmood Qureshi was in the meeting in which Imran Khan had refused to attend and Chief of Army Staff General Bajwa came into the room, his legs were shaking and he was perspiring," Sadiq said in Parliament, adding, "Foreign minister Qureshi said for God's sake let Abhinandan go, India’s about to attack Pakistan at 9 pm".

Posters of Sadiq have also appeared in Lahore, dubbing him a "traitor".

Wing Commander Varthaman's MiG-21 Bison fighter aircraft was shot down by Pakistan's F-16 fighter during a dog fight on February 27 last year. Pakistan later returned Abhinandan to India who came back from the Attari-Wagah border on March 1, 2019.

Wing Commander Abhinandan was awarded the Vir Chakra on Independence Day by President Ram Nath Kovind.
