Imran Khan: The supporters of former premier Imran Khan on Wednesday attacked Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s Lahore residence.
Police said more than 500 miscreants from Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party reached the Model Town Lahore residence of the prime minister in the wee hours of Wednesday and set ablaze vehicles parked there.
A senior police officer told reporters, “They also threw petrol bombs inside the premiere’s house.”
Protesters run rampage
The police official said only the guards were present at the prime minister’s house when the miscreants attacked. They also set on fire a police post there.
“As a heavy contingent of police reached there, the PTI protesters left,” he said.
Before reaching the prime minister’s residence, the protesters also attacked the ruling PML-N Secretariat in Model Town. They went on rampage and put the barriers there on fire.
In the last two days, rampaging mobs set on fire 14 government installations/buildings and 21 police vehicles in Punjab.
Situation in Lahore, other cities tense
The situation in Lahore and several other cities of Punjab remained tense in the wake of the arrest of PTI chief and former premier Imran Khan by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) in a land transfer corruption case.
Violent clashes between Imran Khan’s supporters and security forces have left at least seven people dead and nearly 300 injured across Pakistan. The army was deployed in the country’s capital Islamabad, as well as in Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan provinces to maintain law and order news reports said.
