ISLAMABAD:Minister for Information and Broadcasting Marriyum Aurangzeb has said Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan planned attacks on state installations across the country. Addressing a news conference here in Islamabad on Saturday, she said armed protestors destroyed monuments of the martyrs. She said five to six PTI leaders guided the protestors to vandalize state buildings and installations.

The Minister said condemnation of the incident from Imran Khan is to hide his crimes. She said people involved in vandalization are hiding at Imran Khan’s residence at Zaman Park. She said Imran Khan in his today’s tweet used an Amnesty International generated picture to show human rights violations. She said Imran Khan is using fake pictures for propaganda. The Minister said people have started to quit PTI after 9th May incidents across the country. She said PTI protestors set Radio Pakistan building on fire and destroyed archives.

She said Radio Pakistan has suffered a loss of Rs250 million. She said if culprits of PTV attack had been punished, they would not have vandalized Radio Pakistan. Responding to a question, she said academies of Radio Pakistan, PTV and Information Services are being integrated to train young professionals in the field of media. She said this integration process will be completed by next month.
