LAHORE, May 17: British High Commissioner Adam Thomson called on Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf chairman Imran Khan in Shaukat Khanum Hospital here on Friday.

The envoy enquired after the health of Mr Khan, who is under treatment for injuries he suffered from a fall off a lifter at an election rally in Lahore.

Mr Khan, PTI sources said, asked the British envoy that the UK should take action against Muttahida Qaumi Movement leader Altaf Hussain for inciting the people of Karachi to violence.

He said British laws did not allow any British citizen to use the country against inciting terrorism or violence in other countries.

Mr Khan called for a warning to be issued to the MQM leader for making 'inflammatory speeches’.
