Wazirabad Attack: Imran Khan for ‘proper inquiry’ into death of complainant

Sub-Inspector Bhadar died of cardiac arrest

Former Prime Minister Imran Khan on Monday demanded “proper inquiry” into sudden death of Station House Officer Aamir Shahzad Bhadar who was not only complainant of Wazirabad attack case, but also an important witness of the assassination attempt on Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman.
Bhadar died of the cardiac arrest on Sunday as his condition deteriorated while staying at his home village Bhadar near Kharian town of Gujrat.
Bhadar was the complainant in the case registered against the Nov 2 gun attack on Imran. He had been working at the Sadar police station, where he was posted days before the attack occurred.
A PTI worker had died and 14 others, including the former prime minister and party leaders, were injured in the attack at Wazirabad’s Allah­wala Chowk, where the party’s “Haqeeqi Azadi” march against the federal government had stopped on its way to Islamabad.
“We demand a proper inquiry into the sudden death of SHO Amir Shehzad, of a heart attack. He had registered the FIR of Wazirabad assassination attempt on me & was a critical witness in unearthing the conspirators behind this assassination plot being inquired into by the JIT,” the PTI chief said in a series of tweets.


“The JIT record has also been tampered with. It is equally important to recall the mysterious circumstances surrounding the death of FIA investigator Dr Rizwan as well as the deaths of Maqsood Chaprassi & all other witnesses in Shahbaz Sharif’s money laundering case,” he added.
