RAWALPINDI: A fresh video, circulating on social media, purports to show workers and supporters of the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf attacking the Armed Forces Institute of Cardiology (AFIC) and the Army Welfare Trust Plaza, both in Rawalpindi, during the May 9 mayhem that followed the arrest of Imran Khan.

Dawn was unable to verify the source of the video, which appears to be taken from CCTV footage, and purportedly shows alleged miscreants ransacking the hospital, damaging medical equipment and vehicles.

Slogans against the state and national institutions are also heard in the footage and columns of smoke billowing from the Army Welfare Trust Plaza, which houses Askari Bank, are visible in the backdrop.
