PESHAWAR: Awami National Party (ANP) chief Asfandyar Wali Khan severely criticizing the PTI chairman Imran Khan has demanded the ANP government in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to resign over the attack on Bannu prison.

Addressing a public meeting in connection with the electoral campaign for the August 22 by elections, the ANP chief said that Imran Khan should force his government in the KPK to set down over the humiliating Bannu jail break incident.

Four policemen were put behind bars on August 10, for their negligence in the attack by the TTP.
