She added that if something bad happened to Imran Khan then the top three military officials would be responsible. “I’m requesting them to take care of Imran Khan, otherwise, people would not spare them if something bad happened to him,” she warned.

Imran Khan also told the media on the occasion that a judicial commission should be constituted for the investigation of the May 9 incidents. So far, no inquiry has been conducted concerning the May 9 incidents, he said, adding that Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa must hear the PTI’s petition regarding May 9 and also order the recovery of CCTV footages regarding May 9. “Those who stole the CCTV footages are responsible for May 9”, he said.
