Following death threats to the PTI chairman and former prime minister Imran Khan, Islamabad police conducted a search operation around his residence in Bani Gala in the wee hours of Saturday.
Reportedly, a heavy contingent of police including the bomb disposal squad conducted the operation to disperse the PTI workers who set up camps outside Imran Khan’s Bani Gala residence.
The PTI workers staying around Bani Gala came out of their tents and started shouting slogans against the incumbent government.
Panic is the first sign of defeat & imported govt in panic mode!
Sending police to BaniGala was a stupid move.@AKFixit house also raided last night without any search warrants.
