“The perpetrators of this tragic incident should be brought to justice as soon as possible.”

“Tehreek-e-Insaf stands with the oppressed people of Sindh. Soon, the forces, supporting oppression and injustice, will be defeated,” he added.

نوابشاہ میں PPP کے با اثر افراد کے ہاتھوں پولیس اہلکار سمیت 6 افراد کے قتل کی شدید مذمت کرتا ہوں۔
اس اندوہناک واقعہ کے مجرموں کو جلد از جلد کیفرکردار تک پہنچایا جائے۔
تحریکِ انصاف سندھ کے مظلوم عوام کے ساتھ کھڑی ھے، عنقریب ظلم اور نا انصافی کی حامی قوتیں شکستِ فاش سے دوچار ہونگی
