ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) spokesperson Raoof Hasan has revealed the harrowing details of the violent attack on him, saying that the assailants were trained and specifically targeted his vein.

When he appeared on the ABN news channel program ‘Sawal Sy Aagy, he said, “I barely escaped with life,” Hasan recounted, as four assailants armed with sharp weapons left him with 18 stitches on his face.

“The physical injuries will heal, but the damage to the state is irreparable,” he added emotionally.

Hasan expressed distrust of the government’s investigative committee and demanded a judicial inquiry into the attack.

He said that despite the lack of evidence about the origin or motive of the attackers, it appears that the attack was carried out in a highly planned manner. His legal team rejected the initial FIR on the ground that terror charges were dropped.

The people support Imran Khan, and despite all efforts against us, the people stand with him.
