FIR a ‘useless piece of paper’

Author: Agencies

The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has rejected the first information report (FIR) of the assassination attempt on the party chief in Wazirabad. Reacting to the development, PTI Leader Fawad Chaudhry said that the party will only consider FIR legal if the names of the three high officials are included in it He added that they will deem FIR just a piece of paper if the top officials were not nominated in the FIR. “We will not accept any distortion in the names.”

PTI leader Musarrat Cheema also rejected the FIR of the Wazirabad attack. Cheema added that they reject the FIR of the attack on the PTI chief. An FIR without naming the prime suspects is a waste of time, she added. Filing an FIR without the people named by the PTI chief would lead to complicating the case, she said. “Such a ‘cover-up’ is unacceptable to Imran Khan and the whole nation,” she said, adding that it is the matter of Pakistan’s most popular leader’s life, not a joke. Following the directions of the Supreme Court (SC), the Punjab police finally registered a first information report (FIR) for the assassination attempt on Imran Khan. The FIR was lodged at Wazirabad police station after a lapse of 96 hours of the incident.
