LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Malik Ahmad Khan said on Sunday that the government should stop Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) before another May 9-like incident happens in the country.
He made these comments just a day after former Rawalpindi commissioner Liaquat Ali Chatha admitted rigging under his watch and quit his post.
On the other hand, PTI and other parties have been staging protests against the alleged rigging in the February 8 elections with the former ruling party claiming that its mandate has been stolen.
Addressing a press conference, Malik said that another May 9 will happen on the structure of Pakistan. PTI should be stopped or it will cause great damage to the country.
Recalling the incident, he said that PTI conspired against the state and the Pakistan Army. The party had not learned any lesson from the May 9 incident.
The PML-N leader said that a campaign was being run from PTI’s accounts, adding that the propaganda was not being spread without any reason.
He said that PTI had launched another “scary” campaign by uploading pictures of different DROs and their children on social media.
These people are not ready to stop their anarchic behaviour at all, he claimed. They are now threatening government employees, Malik added while urging the caretaker Prime Minister Anwar ul Haq Kakar and Punjab chief minister to play their role in this regard.
Plan to Create Chaos in Pakistan
Claiming that the photos of the families of the district returning officers are being used to fuel hatred, he called on Chatha to bring forward relevant evidence to support his allegations.
He added that this is a May 9 part II and a plan to create chaos in Pakistan.
