LAHORE: Interior Minister Ahsan Iqbal was discharged from the Services Hospital Monday, where he was being treated after being shot at, Geo News reported. The minister underwent two operations, one aimed at removing the bullet from his lower torso and the other to mend his broken elbow bone.
He had sustained a fracture after the bullet scraped his elbow and then hit his lower abdomen. He was injured during an assassination attempt at a corner meeting in his constituency in Narowal on May 6. The prime suspect in the case Hussain and his accomplice Azeem remain under custody while a joint investigation team was probing the incident. In a video message released Monday, the minister thanked the hospital staff for providing him proper medical treatment. “I chose a government hospital, and the way I was treated, it restored my faith in public health sector,” he added. He said the bullet in his body will keep reminding him that we need to make Pakistan a centre of peace and harmony. We need to struggle to remove the menace of hate from the country, he further added.
