There will be effective prosecution of those involved in violence during PTI protest: Info minister

In a statement issued by the Deputy Prime Minister Office, he labelled the claims of gunshot wounds and unwarranted violence as “malicious” and “absolutely false,” urging to provide evidence such as “graves and dead bodies” to substantiate the accusations.

Ishaq Dar said the so-called protestors came armed with heavy ammunition and tear gas canisters.

He said the mob was determined to create chaos and ready to kill.
