ISLAMABAD: Chairman Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Bilawal Bhutto Zardari Tuesday expressed deep concern over the failure of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government and its police to arrest real culprits in Asma Rani and other cases of heinous nature. In a statement, he said reports that the killers of medical student Asma Rani, Sharifan Bibi, minor girl Isma and student Mashal were still at large due to the backing of influential people belonging to the PTI were disgraceful. “It appears that the PTI has become a party of several ‘Ladlas’ ganged up together to protect and guard killers, murderers and even terrorists,” he stated.

Bilawal said a local PTI leader who incited a mob for the barbaric murder of Mashal Khan had not been arrested even after nine months. “Reports have also confirmed that the nephew of PTI Kohat president and the identified killer of Asma Rani had fled to Saudi Arabia, which was not possible without

collusion of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa government,” he added. The PPP chairman pointed out that as per media reports the killers of Sharifan Bibi and minor girl Asma were also being shielded by influential leaders of PTI in the KP.
