Imran Khan claims 3 shooters tried to kill him in Wazirabad’s failed assassination attempt

Imran Khan claims 3 shooters tried to kill him in Wazirabad’s failed assassination attempt

The Hindu

Gunmen fired at Imran Khan in Punjab’s Wazirabad area on November 3, where he was leading the march against the government to press for snap elections

Pakistan's ousted Prime Minister Imran Khan has claimed that there were three shooters involved in the failed assassination attempt on him during a protest march in the eastern city of Wazirabad earlier this month.

The chairman of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party suffered bullet injuries in the right leg when the gunmen fired at him in Punjab’s Wazirabad area on November 3, where he was leading the march against the government to press for snap elections.

Addressing a massive rally of his party on Saturday night in this garrison city, which houses the headquarters of the powerful Army, Mr. Khan said the two attackers previously identified were the one who fired at him and other PTI leaders and the second shooter fired at the container's front, while the third attacker was tasked to eliminate the first gunman.

Mr. Khan, 70, claimed that this third shooter actually killed a person at the rally while trying to kill the would-be assassin.

Addressing the nation from the Shaukat Khanum Hospital in Lahore a day after the attack, Mr. Khan had said he was hit by four bullets in his right leg by two shooters.

He said he was on a container when a “burst of bullets” was directed at him.

"Then a second burst came, there were two people," he said.
