ISLAMABAD: Advisor to the Prime Minister on Interior Affairs Rehman Malik warned on Monday that an FIR would be registered against Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif in case of a mishap with any Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) legislator in Punjab.
Taking notice of incidents where national assets were damaged and attacks on residences of PPP legislators, he said that the Punjab government has totally failed to provide protection.
Malik added that Sharif is responsible for sponsored disorder, and instead of adopting preventive measures, he is putting the lives of political opponents at risk just to gain political mileage.
He said that it is also the responsibility of the provincial government, especially the chief minister to ensure protection to citizens but he has failed to deliver in an efficient manner.
