Punjab Caretaker Informer Minister Amir Mir has revealed that about 40 “terrorists” that attacked Army installations were currently hiding inside PTI Chairman Imran Khan’s Zaman Park residence in Lahore, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.
Addressing a news conference in Lahore on Wednesday, the provincial minister said that people were incited to attack Army installations after which the Punjab government had decided to adopt a “zero tolerance policy”.
Amir Mir maintained that the federal government, the military leadership and the provincial government had already decided that those involved in the attacks would be taken to the task. “Intelligence report has been received. Thirty to 40 terrorists that attacked Army installations are currently seeking shelter at Zaman Park residence of Imran Khan,” the minister added.
Amir Mir said the miscreants who attacked Lahore Corps Commander’s House on May 9 were in contact with the PTI leadership at Zaman Park. The “handlers” of the attack were in contact with the vandals and were giving them directions, the minister said and added these “terrorists” would be tried in military courts.
The minister said these people would be made such an example that no one would dare repeat the same in future.
Amir Mir said intelligence information had also been received through geo-fencing that terrorists including those who attacked Jinnah House (Corps Commander’s house) were seeking refuge at Imran Khan’s residence.
“That is why the PTI leadership is being requested to hand over these terrorists. The Punjab interim government is giving the PTI leadership 24 hours to hand over the terrorists, who were involved in attacks on military installations and are seeking refuge in Zaman Park, to Punjab police,” the minister declared.
Amir Mir said the agencies investigating the attacks were in possession of evidence regarding their involvement in the attacks.
