Party sources informed that the brothers of MNA Ayesha Rajab Baloch beat him for allegedly harassing her. Referring to the incident, PM’s aide on political communication Shahbaz Gill condemned the ‘harassment’ of the female lawmaker.

“The government would take action over the incident and will protect the female lawmaker from hooliganism,” Shahbaz Gill wrote on Twitter.
