A first information report (FIR) was registered on Wednesday against PML-N vice-president Maryam Nawaz Sharif and party workers over Tuesday’s clash outside the National Accountability Bureau office in Lahore.
A day earlier, after Maryam arrived for a hearing in a case pertaining to “illegal” acquisition of land, violence erupted outside the anti-graft watchdog’s office as heavy police contingents and workers of the PML-N clashed.
Many people, including some officials, were injured and around 50 men were rounded up after police fired tear gas besides hurling back stones at the activists, with each side blaming the other for triggering the clash.
Maryam claimed the government had planned to “cause harm” to her through police action, while posting a video of her bulletproof car’s broken windshield on her Twitter account.
