Gullu Butt denies Model Town vandalism

LAHORE: Model Town vandal - Gullu Butt - on Monday denied charges of destroying public property and attacking police officials, Express News reported. 

Butt, who is allegedly a police tout and Pakistan Muslim League - Nawaz (PML-N) supporter, was seen on TV damaging cars parked in the area where security forces and supporters of Tahirul Qadri clashed on June 17. An anti-terrorism court had indicted him for this but he pleaded not guilty to these charges and referred to them as 'baseless.'

Speaking to the media today, Butt denied that he had broken any windows during the clashes. "The media is my witness; police can say whatever they want to say; I have no enmity towards them," said Butt.

On further questioning by media person, however, Butt admitted to destroying only two windows. "The number of windows I broke has been exaggerated; I only broke two windows," Butt said assuredly.

Commenting on his public image, Butt said that everyone 'loved' him. "People meet me with love and respect and it is the media who has damaged my reputation," he said.

"I am a loving person and people meet me with respect. It is not my fault that the media is portraying me as a terrorist. I am not a terrorist," Butt added.

Why are we trying to make him a hero with our valuable comments & time...leave him...the more we talk, the more he gets media coverage. Only Allah swt knows best...only insha Allah time will prove if he is a hero or zero....justice will be done by Allah swt. So, please guys be patience if you all believe in Allah swt.
