Summary PTI requested the federal government to provide better security.
ISLAMABAD (Web Desk) - Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf protested against the withdrawal of their party chief Imran Khan’s security protocol, Dunya News reported on Friday.
In a letter forwarded the Ministry of Interior, the PTI leader Jahangir Tareen stated that Imran Khan is chief of a political party and he is facing threats from extremists.
The PTI leader termed the withdrawal of Khan’s security under the prevailing circumstances as worrying and requested the government to provide better security.
Earlier on Thursday, PTI claimed that Imran Khan was receiving threats by militants after criticising attacks on polio vaccination teams.
"Mr Khan received a threat from Ansarul Mujahideen over his remarks over anti-polio campaign," Shireen Mazari, a senior member of Khan s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) party said..
Ansarul Mujahideen is a little-known militant group linked to the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan, the umbrella Taliban faction in Pakistan.
It may be mentioned here that Imran Khan on Wednesday declared polio workers as soldiers of Islam and said those attacking them were not doing any justice to humanity, Islam or Pakistanis.
