SHAFAQNA PAKISTAN (Shia News Agency)
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan has said that his party is fighting for democracy.
“In the democracy a peaceful protest is right of everyone. It’s responsibility of the state to protect a peaceful protest, but instead the rulers unleashed their Gullu Butts for bloodshed in Faisalabad,” he said while speaking to reporters at his Bani Gala residence in Islamabad, before leaving for Faisalabad. “Our crime is that we demand justice,” Khan said, and vowed to get an FIR registered in Faridabad. “It is the duty of the governments to ensure protection to the peaceful protests in a democratic country”, he said.
He claimed that the Gullu Butts of Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N) had no right to attack the party’s activists in Faisalabad.
“A man was opening fire at the PTI activists and the law enforcing agencies were posing as silent spectator in the incident”, he said. Imran Khan further claimed that former law minister of Punjab Rana Sanaullah had said that “he will deal with all of them.”
“I am going to Faisalabad where I will file an FIR against the rulers,” said the PTI Chairman.
The PTI Chairman further added that it is an old habit of PML-N to resort to violent ways. He added that the government attacked Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) activists in Model Town area of Lahore and his party supporters were attacked in Jhelum, Gujranwala and other cities.
“They are a product of military dictators. Where were they when former President General (Retd.) Pervez Musharraf was in power,” he asked.
He also said that the Plan C was introduced to pressurize the federal government to probe the alleged rigging in the 2013 elections. He urged for acceptance of their legal demands. PTI Chairman said that if the rulers think of PTI supporters as “Burger and Singing activists” then they should think twice before confronting with the PTI crowd in Lahore.
