'Conspiracy being hatched to assassinate PM Imran', Faisal Vawda claims
According to the former federal minister, the plot is linked to the "secretive" memo that the government had received
A conspiracy was being hatched to assassinate Prime Minister Imran Khan amid rising political tensions in the country, former Federal Minister Faisal Vawda claimed on Wednesday.
"We have told the premier repeatedly to use a bulletproof glass while addressing rallies in response, the premier had stated that he would die when his time comes," Vawda said in a talk show with a local news channel.
The PTI leader's claim comes as the PTI's key ally in the Centre, MQM-P, decided to switch sides and become a part of the Opposition to support its no-confidence motion against the premier.
The prime minister has seemingly lost the majority of the National Assembly as several allies have left the government's camp and decided to back the Opposition — and currently, the treasury benches have 164 members, while the Opposition has 177, and they need 172 to oust the premier.
To a question, the former federal minister said the plot was linked to the "secretive" memo that the government had received. "There isn't just one letter, there are several letters," he claimed.
