MARDAN: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Friday pointed the finger at foreign funded terrorists for the recent acts of terrorism in the country. “Terrorists want to spread chaos in Pakistan through foreign funding,” Khan told the media after visiting Mardan Medical Complex.

At least 13 people, including lawyers and policemen, were killed and scores were wounded in twin blasts at the entrance gate of the district bar in Mardan. Accompanied by Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Pervez Khattak, Imran Khan rushed to Mardan, visited the crime scene and met families of the victims.”In addition to military action, there is an urgent need to launch a political action to deal with the scourge of terrorism,” he said. “Pakistan needs a full-time foreign minister as our stance is not being presented to the world in a proper manner,” he said. To a question, he said that FATA should be made part of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. “We should implement FATA’s reforms without any delay,” he maintained.
