#ImrankhanAssassinationBid: Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif Bats For ‘full Court Commission’ By Supreme Court To Probe Allegation
Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Saturday demanded constitution of a “full court commission” by the Supreme Court to probe his predecessor Imran Khan’s allegations that the premier, the interior minister and a senior military official had orchestrated the failed assassination bid on him.
In a report by PTI, Shehbaz also said he will step down if his involvement is found in any conspiracy related to the attack on Khan.
Khan, 70, suffered a bullet injury in the right leg on Thursday when two gunmen fired a volley of bullets at him and others mounting on a container-mounted truck in the Wazirabad area of Punjab province, where he was leading a protest march against the Shehbaz-led government. While one person died, several Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leaders were injured in the incident.
