Addressing a point of order during the National Assembly session, Shehbaz said, “[PM] Imran Khan demanded my resignation over Model Town incident … and now he should resign on Sahiwal tragedy.”The former Punjab CM claimed that the current chief minister needed prior permission before performing every task. Responding to opposition leader’s verbal attack, Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said the government had decided to act against those involved in the incident after launching a swift investigation into it. He said prompt action has been taken against the police officers concerned by removing them from their positions. Earlier in the day, while addressing a news conference outside the Parliament House in Islamabad, the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leaders termed the ‘interim’ JIT report on Sahiwal incident a “serious joke with the nation”. On Saturday, three members of a family were killed during a shootout between the CTD and suspected terrorists near Sahiwal.
