ISLAMABAD: The Gilgit-Baltistan (GB) government has rejected the allegations levelled by federal Information Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb about the use of territory’s force against Punjab police in the latter’s attempt to arrest PTI chief Imran Khan from his Zaman Park residence.
In a statement on Wednesday, Ali Taj – Spokesperson of GB Chief Minister (CM) Khalid Khurshid – termed Marriyum Aurangzeb’s allegations ‘baseless’ and noted that the territory’s force was on security of chief executive.
He regretted the ‘fabricated allegations’ against GB police, lambasting the information minister for ‘spreading lies’. “The PDM [Pakistan Democratic Movement] government was shaking the foundations of Centre for political revenge,” he added.
Ali Taj further castigated the government for the ‘oppression’ in Zaman Park, alleging that attempts were being carried out to assassinate Imran Khan under the guise of arrest.
The chief minister spokesperson vowed that they will foil the PDM government’s plot to assassinate Imran Khan.
Earlier in the day, federal minister for information and broadcasting Marriyum Aurangzeb claimed that GB force was used against Punjab police in PTI chairman Imran Khan’s possible arrest from his Zaman park Lahore residence.
