Pakistan's former Prime Minister Imran Khan called off reconciliatory talks with the government on Thursday, a week after a court handed him a 14-year jail term on graft charges, his party's chairman said.

The government has said that the next meeting is expected to take place on January 28, when it will formally respond to the PTI demands.

Imran Khan’s comments were in response to his conviction in the £190 million Al-Qadir Trust case, which saw both him and his wife, Bushra Bibi, sentenced. Khan, however, believes the sentence is politically motivated and designed to break his resolve.
