Awami National Party (ANP) has demanded that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan should be tried in a military court for allegedly giving medical treatment to a Taliban leader at Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital (SKMC) in Lahore.
The demand came through a statement issued by central secretary-information of the party Senator Zahid Khan who expressed concern over the statement given by PTI chief in which he had admitted that an Afghan Taliban leader was treated in SKMC in Lahore. "A case should be initiated against Imran Khan for being a facilitator of terrorists and a hearing should be conducted in a military court," he said, adding that further investigations should also be conducted to ascertain the exact number of Taliban treated in SKMC.
Later, talking to Business Recorder, he said that Imran Khan had himself admitted during an interview with a private television channel that medical treatment was given to a Taliban leader at his hospital and now it was up to the government agencies to register a case against him on a pattern that they have employed against the facilitators of terrorists. He further said that an effective implementation on National Action Plan (NAP) was a must to stop terrorists from 'creating terror factories'.
