Islamabad: Minister for Information and Broadcasting Marriyum Aurangzeb on Saturday said Imran Khan planned attacks on state installations across the country.

Addressing a news conference in Islamabad today, she said armed protestors destroyed monuments of the martyrs.

She said five to six PTI leaders guided the protestors to vandalize state buildings and installations.

The Minister said condemnation of the incident from Imran Khan is to hide his crimes.

Marriyum Aurangzeb said people involved in vandalization are hiding at Imran Khan's residence at Zaman Park.

She said Imran Khan in his today's tweet used an AI generated picture to show human rights violations. She said Imran Khan is using fake pictures for propaganda.   

The Minister said people have started to quit PTI after 9th May incidents across the country.

Marriyum Aurangzeb said Imran Khan was the mastermind of all hooliganism and vandalism done on May 9. She said there is irrefutable against him and his party leaders instigating people to attack designated places.

She said Imran Khan did this under a pre-planned conspiracy  to avoid accountability in Toshakhana, prohibited funding and other corruption cases against him.

The Minister said Imran Khan's condemnation of the May 9 incidents is a guise to hide under, as he saw that people across the country have reacted with strong indignation to his politics of hatred and violence.  

She said PTI protestors set Radio Pakistan building on fire and destroyed archives. She said Radio Pakistan has suffered a loss of 250 million rupees. She said if culprits of PTV attack had been punished, they would not have vandalized Radio Pakistan.

Responding to a question, she said academies of Radio Pakistan, PTV and Information Services are being integrated to train young professionals in the field of media. She said this integration process will be completed by next month.
