Sheikh Rashid Ahmed Pakistan: Ex-Minister Rashid accuses PML-N leaders of plotting to kill him
Islamabad: Former interior minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed on Sunday made accusations against top PML-N leaders of plotting to kill him, Express Tribune reported.
Rashid said that he had sent a letter in this regard to the army chief, director-general of Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), director-general of Intelligence Bureau (IB) and the director-general Military Intelligence (MI) among others, in which he had nominated seven names.
Rashid told media persons that "Some people were chasing him last night," adding that he had approached Secretariat Police, naming seven people including former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Interior Minister Rana Sanullah, and Punjab CM Hamza Shehbaz in this regard.
Rashid, who also heads the Awami Muslim League (AML), further said that the said persons wanted to kill him and sabotage Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan's long march – scheduled to take place against what he call 'imported government' in last week of May.
"What sort of a problem do they have with me," he asked. He said that the names nominated by him should be held responsible if anything happened to him.
