Yet another PTI worker has confessed that he was involved in an attack on Lahore’s Jinnah House following the arrest of former prime minister and party Chairman Imran Khan on May 9, which sent a wave of shock among his supporters and loyalists, reported 24NewsHD TV channel.

In his statement, Ashiq Khan, an active member of the PTI from Lahore, confessed that he kept shouting anti-army slogans as others ransacked the building and set it on fire.

A video of the attacker has also surfaced in which he could be seen exhorting other PTI workers to march towards the Jinnah House and attack it.

“Imran Khan is our Red Line. Release him as early as possible. Or otherwise, we will destroy everything,” he kept saying at the top of his voice.

Ashiq told the investigators that the anti-army narrative that was built following the ouster of the PTI government from power in April 2022 led to the attack.
