Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has directed the authorities to provide foolproof security to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan.
According to official sources, the prime minister was given a detailed briefing on PTI chief Imran Khan’s security by the interior ministry.
Shehbaz Sharif has directed Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah to provide the PTI chief and former prime minister with impenetrable security.
At Khan’s residence in Bani Gala, 94 security officers will be deployed, as per the spokesperson of the interior ministry. Of which, 22 men will be from the Islamabad police and 72 from the Frontier Constabulary.
In addition, 26 officers from the security service and nine military personnel will also be made available.
Separately, the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa police has provided 26 cops and Gilgit-Baltistan has also sent six men for the former prime minister’s protective detail.
Prime Minister Shehbaz also directed that the former prime minister be assigned a chief security officer immediately. He also directed that all provincial governments provide security for PTI chairman Imran Khan’s public rallies.
Imran Khan recently stated at a public rally that a plot to assassinate him had been hatched and urged the people to seek justice for him if he is killed.
