Islamabad, Mar 11 (PTI) Pakistan’s ex-premier Imran Khan on Saturday accused the Punjab caretaker government of covering up the death of one of his party workers and demanded a judicial probe into his killing.
Ali Bilal, also known as Zillay Shah, died, while several others were injured on March 8 as the Punjab government used force to block a rally staged to launch Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party’s campaign for the April 30 elections in the province.
In his first televised address after the Lahore High Court revoked the ban on Khan’s speeches, the PTI chairman hit back hard at the provincial authorities, terming the Punjab police as “savages” and saying that he could not believe “what they did to a special person (Bilal)”.
