ISLAMABAD: PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari condemned the political victimisation of PPP leader Ch Yasin and his family in Azad Kashmir. “Ch Yasin also survived an assassination attempt and when he tried to register an FIR, instead of registering a case against the attackers, the police filed a case against Ch Yasin,” he said in a statement Wednesday.
Bilawal said if political retaliation against the PPP workers did not stop, he would protest in Azad Kashmir himself. He said Prime Minister Imran Khan has not been able to digest the victory of the PPP in Azad Kashmir and disgraceful tactics to take revenge. “The selected prime minister is taking political revenge by interfering unconstitutionally in Kashmir’s affairs,” he added.
He said Imran Khan had directly blamed the PPP candidate for the tragic incident of killing of two PTI workers in the Charhoi tehsil. “What sort of Riasat-e-Madina is this where NAB sends you a notice when you make a speech against Imran Khan and accuses you of murder if you win a seat?” he questioned. Bilawal said justice required a judicial inquiry to be conducted in the tragic killing of two party workers, as requested by Ch Yasin.
