Islamabad: PTI Chairman Imran Khan wanted to create a law and order situation that could lead to bloodshed during the long march, Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah alleged on Saturday.
"The PTI’s long march aims to shed the blood of innocent people during a clashes with the law enforcement agencies in the federal capital," he further aleged while addressing a press confernece.
Sanaullah also released an audio clip as evidence during the press conference, claiming the conversation purportedly involved former federal minister and PTI leader Ali Amin Gandapur who was asking for bringing arms to the capital.
He accused Imran of planning to “spread chaos” in the name of the long march, citing the purported leaked audio.
In the clip, a man, believed to be Gandapur, is heard asking an unidentified person about the number of guns and individuals available. He also asks the other person to keep “things and people” ready at a location near the Islamabad border.

Sanaullah said a forensic audit of the audio clip could be conducted to prove its authenticity and asked the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa chief secretary and police chief to take notice and “immediately” arrest the two people it featured.
In response to the interior minister's allegations, Gandapur said the PTI was holding peaceful march on May 25 and yet the government clamped down on it.
He said Sanaullah again threatened to beat them [PTI workers], adding the PTI had not worn bangles as well.
“If you thrashes us, what do you think, we will be carrying garlands for you?” the PTI leader further questioned.
