Sanaullah alleged that PTI chief Imran Khan preached hatred to the youth of the nation. “Imran Khan is now talking about dialogues but he did not clearly condemn the May 9 riots.”

“They planned to stage a raid on a PTI worker and kill some people there to incite other nationals. We received an intel report that the plan can be executed tonight, therefore, I held a press conference.”
