A worker of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has been killed in clashes with police in Lahore, the party claimed on Wednesday.
In a message on Twitter, PTI Chairman Imran Khan accused the provincial police of brutality and murdering party worker Ali Bilal in clashes near his residence in Zaman Park.
“Ali Bilal unarmed & our dedicated & passionate PTI worker murdered by Punjab police,” the former prime minister said in a tweet.
“Shameful, this brutality on unarmed PTI workers who were coming to attend election rally. Pakistan is in the grip of murderous criminals. We will file cases against IG, CCPO & others for murder,” he added.
Earlier, police arrested several PTI workers who turned up on Mall Road to participate in the rally the party claims to have been taking out in ‘favour of the judiciary’.
Police also baton-charged the people after the PTI workers thronged Canal Road and set up a temporary bridge. The road leading to Zaman Park from The Mall was blocked with containers.
