The PTI protestors also set fire to the Quaid-e-Azam’s piano, table set, and sword that were on display on Tuesday when they stormed the Corps Commanders House in Lahore.
According to the Punjab police spokesperson, the founder of Pakistan gave these antiques to the government of Pakistan, who then kept them in Jinnah House as a part of the nation’s national heritage.
After PTI supporters staged violent protests against Imran Khan’s arrest on the grounds of the Islamabad High Court on Tuesday in connection with a graft case, a chaotic situation broke out throughout Pakistan.

During the protests, Quaid-e-Azam’s piano, and table were also set on fire.
Several imported vehicles belonging to Pakistani Army officers were on fire as flames came out of various rooms in the structure.
People were removing various items from the structure, also known as the Quaid-e-Azam residence.
