Speaking to reporters in Lahore after appearing before an anti-terrorism court (ATC), Butt - who is allegedly a PML-N activist and a local hoodlum - said that he has no relation to any political party or police.
Video footage has shown Butt smashing cars during clashes between Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) workers and the police outside the Minhajul Quran International Secretariat on June 17. He broke windscreens and windows of private vehicles with a club in the presence of police officials, who did not do anything to stop him.
Addressing the media today, Butt said that he was a social welfare worker.
When a reporter said that the incident made Butt famous, the vandal replied that he does not want such publicity, adding that it was hurting the country's image.
"I am so upset mentally because of this, and therefore cannot comment on whether I want to join politics or not," Butt remarked, when questioned whether he would enter politics.
