\u2022 Islamabad admin denies PTI permission to hold rally, says Section 144 in place
\n\u2022 Court refuses remand, sends Gill to Pims in view of his condition<\/p>\n
ISLAMABAD: After a court in the capital declined to hand over his custody to Islamabad police in view of his fragile condition, Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan on Friday alleged that his close aide Shahbaz Gill was \u201csexually abused\u201d and \u201ctortured both mentally and physically\u201d by investigators during the ongoing probe against him for making \u201cseditious remarks\u201d.<\/p>\n
Mr Khan also announced countrywide rallies to express solidarity with his chief of staff, who is incarcerated in a sedition case, vowing to seek justice for the PTI leader currently being treated in the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (Pims). The capital police said they did not inflict torture on Shahbaz Gill so who were the individuals responsible for the torture of Mr Gill, the PTI chief asked.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is a general perception in the public at large and in our minds too, as to who could have carried out the gruesome torture. Remember, the public will react. We will leave no stone unturned to find those responsible and bring them to justice,\u201d Mr Khan said in his tweet.<\/p>\n
\u201cAll the pictures and videos show clearly Gill was tortured both mentally and physically, including sexual abuse \u2013 most too gruesome to relate. He was humiliated to break him down. I now have full detailed information,\u201d the former premier tweeted.<\/p>\n
Mr Khan urged his party supporters to take to the streets today in the federal capital and all regional headquarters to protest against the detention and alleged torture inflicted on Mr Gill. The PTI chairman urged people to join the rally to show their resolve against the torture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
