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.
