PESHAWAR: Reacting to the life threats being faced by Awami National Party (ANP) leaders, ANP Secretary Information Zahid Khan on Sunday said the party has been on the target since 2008.
In a statement, he said the party workers had lost patience but the leaders controlled the workers.
He asked the government to provide security to ANP as has been enshrined in the Constitution.

He said the ruling party and their supporters were secured while the Awami National Party workers were targeted.

He said that his party had reservations over the National Counter-Terrorism Authority (Nacta) letter, saying that the letter had provided all information about the attacker.Zahid Khan demanded arrest of the person planning attack on Awami National Party leader Mian Iftikhar Hussain. He also demanded exposing the facilitators and mentors of terrorists.
