The Pakistan Tehreek-Insaaf leadership is going to lodge an FIR against Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and other senior functionaries of the coalition government for “killing of several party supporters” during the Islamabad protest.

“The government has been trying to conceal the facts and whoever is coming forward to expose them is being arrested,” PTI spokesperson Sheikh WaqasAkram said while addressing a press conference in Peshawar.

He added that the PTI would file FIRs against PM Shehbaz, Interior Minister MohsinNaqvi and Information Minister AttaullahTarar over “protesters’ deaths”.

The development comes as nearly 1,000 PTI workers, as per the party’s claim, were arrested by the law enforcers in the late-night crackdown against the crowd that had gathered in Islamabad’s D-Chowk as part of their “do-or-die” protest to secure party founder Imran Khan’s release who remains incarcerated for more than a year.

Waqas said that PTI’s legal teams were assisting the arrested protesters, adding that they were not “terrorists but peaceful protesters”.

Slamming the government for “denying the facts”, Akram said that they have video evidence, of how many bullets were fired. “At least 12 people were killed on the spot and the bodies were not handed over to the relatives,” he claimed.

He alleged that the incumbent rulers pressurized Polyclinic Hospital in Islamabad and concealed its lists, which he claimed contained details of killed and injured protesters. “Many of our missing workers and supporters in the Police possession.”

Akram also criticised the Punjab government’s actions, alleging that the authorities barged into every provincial MNA’s residence and vandalised it. In response to a question, he said that the imposition of governor rule in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa would be the “worst of stupidities”.

He further lambasted the authorities for passing a resolution regarding a ban on the PTI in the Balochistan Assembly, saying that they will table a resolution in the KP assembly seeking a ban on the Pakistan Muslim League-N and the Pakistan People’s Party.

Responding to a question, Akram said that KP Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapurhonoured the prestige of Pashtuns by saving BushraBibi, the wife of Imran Khan, from arrest.
