PML-N leader Ahsan Iqbal has refuted the allegations that he is involved in the arrest of Daniyal Aziz.

Earlier in the day, Aziz’s wife claimed her husband was badly tortured and picked up by the police. She had named Ahsan Iqbal as the culprit.

In a post on X, Iqbal said Aziz’s supporters carried out violence at various polling stations prompting the police to intervene.

It must be noted that Aziz had earlier accused Iqbal of all the ills being faced by the country. Aziz was subsequently issued a show-cause notice by the PML-N.
