ISLAMABAD: Defence Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif on Tuesday said the coalition government has no plan to ban Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) but action will be taken against violators of law.

Talking to a private television channel, he said the government will take every step against those who are found involved in provocative activities on May 9. Khawaja Asif said it is the government’s duty to expose the corruption and corrupt practices committed by previous regime of Imran Khan-led PTI.

To a question about Army Act being applied against the violators of law, he said the government has not decided yet which law would be suitable for punishing the lawbreakers. The Defense Minister regretted that Imran Khan did not condemn the attacks on national institutions on May 9.
