LAHORE: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) President Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi said that the Zaman Park police operation was carried out on the orders of Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) leaders Maryam Nawaz and Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah, ARY News reported.
Talking to journalists, Pervaiz Elahi lambasted Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) government and alleged that the police – on the orders of Rana Sanaullah and Maryam Nawaz – raided the PTI chairman’s house and ransacked everything without a search warrant.
“Imran Khan’s sister and wife, who were present at home at the time of raid, sought search warrant from police,” Elahi said. However, he added, the police instead of showing the warrant raided and ransacked the house.
He maintained that the elections will be held in any case as per the Supreme Court (SC) orders, claiming that the PML-N will lose the election as Imran Khan is currently the most popular leader across the country.
He called out to the nation to come in support of Imran Khan and against the incumbent government.
Earlier in the day, the Punjab police raided Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) chairman and former prime minister Imran Khan’s Zaman Park residence.
As per details, the police have arrested more than 13 PTI workers in the anti-encroachment operation at Zaman Park Lahore and one police constable was also injured in retaliation from the PTI workers.

The police have closed the road leading to Zaman Park from Sundar Das Road for traffic and uprooted the tents from the road outside PTI chief Imran Khan’s Lahore residence. A heavy number of personnel are deployed on road leading to Zaman Park.
The police officials said that the search warrant was issued by an anti-terrorism court administrative judge and they arrived at Zaman Park with the search warrant.
