Social media users have criticised PTI Chairman Imran Khan for “using his party workers as a shield” after PTI supporters clash with security personnel who reached ex- premier’s Lahore residence to arrest him as per the court’s orders.
Officials from law enforcement agencies have been trying to arrest Imran Khan since yesterday. However, the PTI supporters have been stopping security personnel from entering Imran Khan’s Lahore residence where he is currently present.
During the clash between the PTI supporters and security personnel outside Imran Khan’s residence, as many as 54 policemen have been injured so far.
Social media users have condemned Imran Khan for not complying with the court’s orders and using his workers as a”shield to avoid arrest”.
Former member of the National Assembly Bushra Gohar criticised Imran Khan for using his workers as a shield and said that had a party leader from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa done this, they would have been labeled a terrorist.
Had party leader from #Pakhtunkhwa used workers as a shield to avoid arrest, s/he would have been labelled a terrorist & house bombarded. #GayaPakistan #EndThePuppetShow https://t.co/Y2VecGHEQF

Another social media user called Imran Khan out for “creating drama” and said that Imran Khan has once again proved that he is not an “awami leader”.
Imran Khan calls himself a leader and he is afraid of being arrested — what a fainthearted man who has created Tamasha, drama to protect himself. Once again, Imran has proved that he is not Awami leader

One social media user criticised the PTI chief for not stopping his workers from creating “mayhem” as they set fire to a water tanker of the Lahore Water and Wastewater Management and other vehicles.
When there was mayhem after Benazir assassinated, @AAliZardari had raised one slogan “ Pakistan Khapay” and calm returned.

Minister for Climate Change Sherry Rehman also criticised Imran Khan for not facing the courts and said that the former premier thinks he is above the law and judiciary.
عدالتی حکم پر عملدرآمد کیلئے پولیس ضمانت پارک پہنچتی ہے تو تحریک انتشار کی ڈنڈا بردار فورس نکل آتی ہے۔قانونی کاروائی میں مداخلت اور پولیس پر پتھراؤ کی شدید مذمت کرتے ہیں۔مفرور خان کو پولیس سے بچانے کیلئے ٹائیگر فورس کو آگے کیا جاتا ہے۔ یہ ملک میں کس لاقانونیت کی بنیاد رکھ رہے؟1/2

She added that PTI workers are obstructing justice for clashing with the police officials who reached Imran Khan’s Lahore residence to arrest him as per the court’s orders.
عدالتی اور قانونی کاروائی کو روکنا بھی جرم ہے۔ کارکنان کو پولیس کےخلاف اکسانے سے بہتر ہے عمران خان باعزت طرقے سے کاروائی کا سامنہ کریں۔ یہ عدالت کا احترام کرتے ہیں نا قانون کا۔ عمران خان خود کو عدالت اور قانون سے بالا سمجھنا بند کریں اور عام شہری کی طرح قانون کا سامنہ کریں۔ 2/2

The minister also asked Imran Khan to face the courts instead of inciting his workers to violence.
Which leader uses women and party workers as shields? she questioned.
Sherry Rehman called the PTI chief “selfish” for putting his workers and police officials’ lives in danger.
کون سا سیاسی قائد اپنی گرفتاری سے بچنے کیلئے کارکنان اور عورتوں کو ڈھال بناتا ہے؟ تحریک انصاف نے کل سے زمان پارک کو یرغمال بنایا ہوا ہے۔ عمران خان گرفتاری سے بچنے کیلئے اپنے کارکنان اور پولیس والوں کی زندگیاں خطرے میں ڈال رہے۔ ایک خودغرض لیڈر ہی لوگوں کی زندگیوں سے کھیلتا ہے۔3/3
