KOHAT: Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) workers clashed with each other outside Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s procession in Kohat on Friday, a private news channel reported.
PTI workers staged a protest on the arrival of PM Nawaz in Kohat and raised slogans against him. While the PM was addressing a gathering, the workers of both the parties clashed with each other. Police took the action and dispersed the protesters after baton-charging them.
Prime Minister was in Kohat for the ground-breaking of gas project worth 3.9 billion rupees. Situation in the country is immensely tense as countrywide protests are being held by PTI over the detention over their workers by Islamabad police a day before.
Section-144 has been imposed in the federal capital to thwart PTI’s planning of a major anti-government protest. PTI Chief Imran Khan is due to lead the protest on November 2 to demand Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif step down over recent Panama Papers leaks.
Sharif is under growing pressure from opposition parties over his children’s offshore bank accounts that were revealed in the Panama Papers leak.
