Former Pakistan Prime Minister, Imran Khan, was shot in the foot on Thursday at a political rally, but is in a stable condition, a senior aide said.
Digital journalist, Anees Hanif, revealed that Faisal Butt is indeed the shooter who shot at Imran Khan in Pakistan.
Khan was wounded when shots were fired from the crowd near the city of Gujranwala, his senior aide, Raoof Hasan, told AFP.
“This was an attempt to kill him, to assassinate him,” Hasan said, adding that one alleged attacker had been shot dead and a second taken into police custody.
Zeeshan Bakhsh, a local reporter who was present, told the local media that in the beginning, no one knew what was happening and some thought it was fireworks. “After the first burst I saw someone lying on the ground […] everything happened in 15 seconds,” he said.
The Pakistani prime minister, Shehbaz Sharif, said: “I condemn the incident of firing on PTI chairman Imran Khan in the strongest words. I have directed the interior minister for an immediate report on the incident. I pray for the recovery and health of the PTI chairman and other injured people.”
The attack happened less than a week after Khan began his march from Lahore, the capital of Punjab province, along with thousands of supporters. Since his ousting in a no-confidence vote in parliament in April, Khan has alleged that he was the victim of a conspiracy engineered by his successor, Sharif, and the US – claims that the new premier and Washington have both denied.
