Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah has said that only one suspect had been taken into custody for the assassination attempt on PTI chief Imran Khan.

“I say this again, Naveed is the only suspect. There is no other suspect.”

He went on to say that the suspect had the same motivations as those behind the attack on Ahsan Iqbal and ink attack on Khawaja Asif.

He added that the suspect was “self-motivated” and was not a part of any political or religious party. “All the people he was linked to and in contact with are being investigated.”
