ISLAMABAD: PTI Chairman Imran Khan on Tuesday condemned police shelling on the convoy of Chief Minister Khyber Pakhtwnkha and termed this as ‘state terrorism’ on ‘unarmed’ party workers.
Talking to the media outside his Bani Gala residence, just before Panama Leaks hearing at the Supreme Court in which he is one of the petitioners, PTI chief said Shah Mehmood Qureshi and Asad Umar are going to attend the proceedings.
He said despite brutal police action on the party activists on Motorway, there was no reaction from them that means they were unarmed. This is all propaganda by the PML-N that the KPK CM was coming with armed gangs, he added.
On a question about Sheikh Rasheed’s anger over him, Imran said the captain knows what strategy he has to follow, I never committed to join his protest rally.
Come what may, I will leave my home with my countrymen on November 2, he reiterated. This is our right to protest against the corruption of our rulers, he added.
