The PPP has requested Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) Director General (DG) Lt Gen Nadeem Anjum to investigate and "bring to light the facts" around the incident involving a camera-equipped drone striking PPP leader Aseefa Bhutto-Zardari during her party's anti-government march in Khanewal earlier this month.

The incident took place on March 4, when Aseefa was standing atop a truck alongside her brother, Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari.

Video footage aired on television had shown the drone moving directly towards Aseefa, who lurched backward and ducked down in an attempt to get out of the device's way.

The drone had struck her near the right eye. She was initially given first aid at the spot and later shifted to Mukhtar A. Sheikh Hospital in Multan, where she got stitches on what Bilawal had described at the time as "deep lacerations".
