Police lodge terrorism case against PTI activists
Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah said Tuesday that the government would take action against perpetrators for “attacking” the judicial complex, rioting, and sabotaging the judiciary’s dignity during Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan’s appearance in Islamabad courts.
In a press conference alongwith Pakistan Muslim League-N leaders Uzma Bukhari and Talal Chaudhry, the minister said that the culprits would be booked and arrested on terror charges.
Security arrangements at Sector G-11 of the judicial complex were disrupted as PTI workers removed all barriers during their chief’s appearances in the different courts. On the occasion, some of the workers vandalised the building and undermined the decorum of the courts.
Commenting on the “special treatment” given to Khan by the country’s courts and how the situation worsened in the federal capital as his supporters gathered to welcome him, Sanaullah said: “The banking court, which is present in the judicial complex, was stormed by around 400 ‘worker-like goons’ who were with them.”
“They attacked the policemen on duty by pushing them and ripping their uniforms apart and caused damage to the building by breaking its glass,” the interior minister said.
