Centre blames PTI for Bannu violence

Tarar claimed some members of PTI, other parties allegedly opened fire during the rally

ISLAMABAD:

Rejecting the inquiry commission formed by the PTI-led government in the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, the government has blamed the party for their involvement in the incident.

Addressing a presser on Sunday in Islamabad, Information Minister Ataullah Tarar claimed that the PTI like other political parties became part of the peace rally and some of their members allegedly opened fire during the rally that caused stampede inflicting injuries to many.

Tarar said they hatched a conspiracy and tried to blame the security agencies for the incident. “They are uploading pictures of children belonging to another country on social media and claiming that the people were martyred by direct firing of the security forces.”
