LAHORE: Chief Minister Usman Buzdar on Monday took his courage in both hands to face media in the heat of events following the Sahiwal killings but parried most of the questions.

The chief minister also did not give a clear answer about the formation of JIT.

“The JIT report will reach me by Tuesday (today) evening and only then I will be able to respond to your questions,” he said.

The chief minister also chaired PTI parliamentary party meeting at the Punjab Assembly cafeteria and condemned the Sahiwal case.
