Amid the crisis involving Imran Khan, Pakistani social media sites are abuzz that some top-ranking army officials have resigned and disobeyed army chief General Asim Munir.

In a rare move, the Pakistan army has responded to the buzz, saying “neither any resignation was given nor any disobedience was committed.”

Speaking to a TV news channel, Inter-Services Public Relations Director General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry Sharif said that General Asim Munir and the senior army leadership under him wholeheartedly support democracy and will keep doing so. 

He said army leadership believed in the continuity of democracy even in the prevailing deadlock between the government and PTI.
