The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Monday announced registering a case against Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leaders Rana Sanaullah and Marriyum Aurangzeb for allegedly hurling threats against their party founder Imran Khan.
MNA Shandana Gulzar, Sher Ali Arbab and Moazzam Butt Advocate expressed their concerns regarding the PTI chairman’s life, saying they had already apprised the government of their reservations.
Addressing a news conference at the Peshawar Press Club, the PTI leaders maintained that more than 200 cases were registered against them by “using a legal process”.
They said PTI founder’s life was in danger, saying that explosives had been recovered along the walls of Adiala Jail. They demanded that the interior ministry should provide protection to their leader.
The PTI leaders said Sanaullah and Marriyum had ‘openly’ hurled threats against Imran, adding that they would get an FIR registered against them.
Quoting Marriyum that the ‘mischief should have been beheaded earlier’, the PTI leaders said they had been pointing out that the situation is not normal.
“The pillars of Pakistan will shake if anything happens to PTI founding chairman.”
