As Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) plans to hold protests in twin cities, Minister of State for Interior Talal Chaudhry on Tuesday warned the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) chief minister against using provincial government resources for political purposes, saying that any such move would lead to action under the law. “I hope the KP chief minister will not use state resources for political purposes,” he said while addressing a press conference in Islamabad.
Talal said that KP police personnel were being brought to Islamabad for political activities. “KP police are being brought to Islamabad, and criminal cases will be registered against any government employee involved,” he maintained. The state minister’s statement came against the backdrop of PTI’s planned protests today outside the Islamabad High Court (IHC) and Rawalpindi’s Adiala Jail over restrictions on the visitation rights of party founder Imran Khan.
