Prime accused in assassination attempt on PTI chief Imran Khan in Wazirabad has filed objections against the joint investigation team (JIT) constituted to probe the matter, through an application filed before Punjab Home Department, reported 24NewsHD TV channel on Saturday.

Accused Naveed challenged the JIT after political malice came to light in the media. Members of the JIT have levelled serious allegations against each other, he said while filing objections through his counsel Mian Dawood.

Imran sustained injuries in a gun attack in Wazirabad on November 3, while leading his ‘Haqeeqi Azadi’ march towards Islamabad.

One person died in the shooting, while several members of the PTI chairman’s close circle, including Faisal Javaid, Imran Ismail, Ahmad Chattha and Imran Yousaf were also injured.
