NAROWAL: As desertion from the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) continued, a ticket-holder from Narowal, Sajjad Mahais, on Monday parted ways with embattled Imran Khan over May 9 mayhem.
Mr Mahais made the announcement in a video statement, calling the May 9 a “darkest day” in the history of Pakistan. “Army and its institution are backbone of our country,” he said while demanding actions against all those involved in attacking these institutions and military installations.
“I strongly condemn the disturbing incidents,” he said, adding the May 9 events had forced him to leave the PTI.
“I am stepping down from all PTI positions and withdrawing as part’s candidate in PP-49,” Sajjad Mahais said.
