PTI Chairman Imran Khan halted the long march at the end of the first day of the anti-government protest. The long march ended at Shahdara after passing through the Ferozepur Road, Icchra and Mozang.

Addressing PTI supporters on day 2 of long march, Imran Khan said that the 75-year-old senator was tortured in front of his family members which is highly regrettable.

“I want to tell them that we are humans and not sheep,” he told participants of long march at Shahdra.

“I knew Lahore will never disappoint me,” he said, addressing the participants of the march at the Data Darbar, Lahore. “However, we are concluding our Islamabad-bound journey for today.”

Khan announced that the long march would resume its journey towards the federal capital at 11am from Shahdara, outside Lahore.

The PTI chief reiterated his stance, saying the long march was neither for politics nor was it a regular movement. Instead, it is a “jihad” for real freedom, he stressed.
