Lahore(Tahir Chuhdary)_Caretaker Punjab Chief Minister Syed Mohsin Naqvi on Friday ordered to end police blockade outside Zaman Park.

He said this in his meeting with the government’ team negotiating with Imran Khan for permission to conduct a search operation to arrest miscreants in Zaman Park.

During the meeting, Mr Naqvi said that as promised, the Zaman Park administration should end encroachments.

It should be noted that the government team that went to meet Zaman Park include Commissioner Lahore Muhammad Ali Randhawa, DC Lahore Rafia Haider, DIG, and other officials. On the occasion, the legal team of PTI Chairman Imran Khan was also present.

However, Imran Khan refused to allow police and administration to conduct search operation at his residence, and set conditions.

Meanwhile, Imran Khan’s security in-charge Iftikhar Ghamman while talking to the media said that they have provided assurance of cooperation for the search operation, emphasizing the need to bring the court order when initiating the process.

To a question, he said that the government team informed them that they will come back with a search warrant. The team conveyed that they were aware of the presence of miscreants in Zaman Park. Upon arriving at Khan Sahib’s house, the doors were promptly opened for the team.

Ghuman said, “I believe they have realised that there is nothing to be found here. The only things they discovered were water and biscuits. We openly allowed them access to the house, as witnessed by all of you. Now, I encourage you to inquire about what they actually found.”

On Wednesday, the Punjab government asked Khan to hand over supporters it blamed for the attacks.

Khan has denied sheltering anyone involved in the violence, saying the authorities could search his home but only with court warrants.

On Thursday, journalists were allowed into some areas of the home to “look for terrorists”.Punjab Caretaker Information Minister Amir Mir on Friday alleged that in the last week of April, former prime minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan set targets in the meeting, and the arrested leaders of the party also put all the blame on Imran Khan, it seems that the masterminds of these attacks have also been the companions of Imran Khan.

Speaking exclusively to PVT TV, he said that individuals disguised as a milkman or newspaperman emerged from Zaman Park, followed by a group of eight individuals, and later six more individuals in various disguises. These individuals are believed to be connected to the attack on Corps Commander House, and they have been successfully apprehended by our team.The interim provincial information minister stated that during the discussions with the government team, Imran Khan acknowledged that he is unable to locate and apprehend the miscreants associated with the party whose names have been provided.

He said that no media person went to Imran Khan’s house, and journalists were shown the roof and garage and other parts of the house, adding that Imran Khan wanted four people to come and search.

Mir went on to say that the GHQ was attacked by the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) in 2009. The investigation into the attack on the GHQ is ongoing and more people will be arrested.
