PTI workers think Imtiaz Bagri had links with Imran Khan’s shooter

Lahore: Many PTI supporters believe that the shooter that attacked Imran Khan during the long march had close links PML-N leader Imtiaz Bagri.

The PTI has accused Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah and Director General Counter Intelligence ISI Major General Faisal Naseer of being behind the attack.

Multiple PTI workers have shared a ‘screen recording’ of the Facebook profiles of the attacker Naveed Maher and Imtiaz Bagri with claims that the duo knew each other before the attack was carried out on Khan.

I was initially skeptical about one of the attackers, Naveed Maher, being related to PMLN member Imtiaz Azhar Bagri but this is proof enough that they do, in fact, know each other.#Rawalpindi pic.twitter.com/fsfU0QdK1Q

Several others posted a purported video of Bagri wherein they say he threatened to attack the former prime minister.

Police, meanwhile, have yet to establish any link between the attacker and any political opponent of the PTI chairman.
