LAHORE: The Chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Imran Khan has spoken of, what he called, a death trap to assassinate him in the Judicial Complex of Islamabad when he reached there to appear in court vis-a-vis Toshakhana case.
Khan traveled all the way from Lahore to Islamabad on Saturday to appear before District and Session Judge Zafar Iqbal in a bit to meet the deadline of his arrest warrant in Toshakhana case.
He along with his other party leaders and supporters had to face multiple resistance in the name of security pickets, followed by heavy tear gas shelling right in front of the main entry point of Judicial Complex Islamabad, rendering him unable to appear before the judge despite struggling for hours.

Moments before the start of clashes between PTI workers and security personnel around Judicial Complex, someone approached the party workers and seemingly tried to incite them to violence.

Posting the video on his Twitter timeline on Monday, Imran Khan wrote “This agency man trying to provoke our workers to get violent & is being exposed. I want to tell all PTI that no matter what the provocation, we must protest peacefully & within the bounds of the Constitution. Otherwise we will give these fascists reason for more violence.”
