When asked as to what information he had been given on the (Wazirabad) incident, and by whom, Imran Khan said “Remember, three and a half years I was in power. I have connections with intelligence agencies, the different agencies that operate. How did I get the information? From within the intelligence agencies. Why? Because most people are appalled by what is going on in this country.”
Imran Khan said bullets were taken from his right leg from the shooting which injured him on November 3 Wazirabad attack. He said “they took out three bullets from my right leg. The left had some shrapnel which they’ve left inside,” adding that his bone had been damaged and that his leg is in a cast, adding that it will take four to six weeks for him to resume normal activity.
