ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan alleged that Shahbaz Gill was “sexually abused” and “tortured both mentally and physically” by investigators during the ongoing probe against him for making “seditious remarks”.
Mr Khan also announced countrywide rallies to express solidarity with his chief of staff Gill, who is incarcerated in a sedition case. Khan vowed to seek justice for the PTI leader currently being treated in the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS). The capital police said they did not torture on Shahbaz Gill, so who were the individuals responsible for the torture of Mr Gill, the PTI chief asked.
“There is a general perception in the public at large and in our minds too, as to who could have carried out the gruesome torture. Remember, the public will react. We will leave no stone unturned to find those responsible and bring them to justice,” Mr Khan said in his tweet.
“All the pictures and videos show clearly Gill was tortured both mentally and physically, including sexual abuse – most too gruesome to relate. He was humiliated to break him down. I now have full detailed information,” the former premier tweeted.
Imran Khan urged his party supporters to take to the streets today in the federal capital and all regional headquarters to protest against the torture inflicted on Gill. The PTI chairman urged people to join the rally to show their resolve against the torture.
