– CM Maryam deems PTI ‘terrorist’ party –
Separately, CM Maryam had deemed on Wednesday the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) as the “terrorist” party.
Addressing a press conference in Lahore, CM Maryam took a swipe at the embattled party, saying, “The PTI has used children in a bid to launch their projects. The students’ attentions had been diverted by the PTI by making baseless news an issue.”
“The PTI has resorted to the wicked tactics in a bid to save its politics. The standard of your [PTI] politics has been so low that now you are involving the children,” she rued.
“The girl who was subjected to the allegation was admitted in the hospital since October 2,” she said.
“All the people who were involved in the protest will be brought to justice,” CM Maryam maintained.
