Former prime minister Imran Khan has held three people responsible for a gun attack at PTI long march near Wazirabad, according to senior party leader Asad Umar.
In a video statement, Asad Umar said that Khan, who is currently under treatment for bullet wounds in the Shaukat Khanum Hospital Lahore, has recently held a conversation with Mian Aslam Iqbal and him.
Imran Khan has blamed Shehbaz Sharif, Rana Sanaullah, and Major General Faisal for today’s attack.
“A short while ago, Imran Khan told us to issue this statement on his behalf. He believes there are 3 people on whose behest this was done-Shehbaz Sharif, Rana Sanaullah and Major General Faisal. He said he was receiving information and is saying this on that basis,” PTI’s Asad Umar & Mian Aslam Iqbal said.
Major General Faisal Naseer is an Intelligence Officer and head of Internal Wing ISI (Inter Services Intelligence).
Imran Khan was shot in the leg during the long march.
Khan began the march last Friday in Lahore and has since stopped in a number of cities en route to Islamabad.
Nearly 200 kilometres from Islamabad, in the Gujranwala area of Punjab Province, was where the PTI caravan was supposed to stop today. A gunman, who looks to be between 30 and 40 years old, tried to shoot the PTI leaders who were standing on the container’s roof, while a large group of PTI supporters marched alongside it on foot and others in vehicles toward today’s destination. Police detained a suspect after he admitted to them that no one had sent him to carry out the crime.
