Islamabad: JUI-F chief Fazlur Rehman reached parliament to hand him over to the police in protest. PML-N leader Ayaz Sadiq also announced that all the opposition MNAs will also surrender to the police.
Fazl, while addressing the media, said he has reached the parliament to surrender himself as PDM president. He said they had reports that their MNAs would be abducted. He also gave a call for countrywide protest against the government.
The police have also arrested MNA Jamulud Din while Khawaja Saad Rafiq and Kamran Murtaza sustained injuries during the operation. On the other hand, JUI has given a call to their workers all around the country to reach Islamabad.
Islamabad Inspector General of Police Muhammad Ahsan Younus took notice of the group's presence inside the lodges, according to a tweet posted from their official account. He suspended the police officials in charge at D-Chowk, parliament lodges and took charge of the operation.
