Several trucks were dispatched from the scene, laden with the confiscated relief supplies from Gandapur's residence.

Earlier, the former minister had written a letter to the interim chief minister of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, leveling several accusations against him. The PTI leader is accused of inciting the public and issuing threats against the provincial chief.

Family members of Gandapur's household have claimed that the police confiscated their personal belongings, for which they possess proper documentation.

Contrary to the family's claims, the police authorities have stated that the confiscated items included government-issued relief supplies intended for the aid of the local populace in need.

In April, a court in Bhakkar had granted bail to Gandapur against surety bonds worth Rs50,000 in the Dajal check post attack case.
