ISLAMABAD : Jailed former PM Imran Khan was booked Tuesday in a new case linked to the death of a constable during protests by his Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf ( PTI ) party in Islamabad last week.
Ali Amin Gandapur, PTI’s chief minister of northwestern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) province, was also named in the case along with several party workers. Fourteen cases have so far been filed against Imran and his PTI colleagues in Islamabad alone over the Oct 4 protests.
Imran also faces other cases in Hasan Abdal, Rawalpindi and Attock on charges of sedition, terrorism and attempted murder over PTI protesters’ clashes with police during marches.
“The protesters attacked the policemen with sticks, stones and rods. They tore the uniforms of policemen, fired at them and set govt and public property ablaze,” the FIR in Hasan Abdal states.
In the latest Islamabad case, police said the constable, who was about two retire in three months, was tortured by the protestors at the behest of PTI leaders, including Imran and Gandapur. “The cop was allegedly attacked by miscreants during PTI’s D Chowk (in front of Parliament and PM’s office) protest on Oct 4. He was subjected to violence after being “kidnapped” and later succumbed to his injuries,” the FIR states.
However, the constable’s son had reportedly claimed his father was an asthma patient and died due to excessive tear-gas shelling.
