PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has endorsed the PTI’s call for the formation of a judicial commission to probe the May 9 riots.

In a speech in the National Assembly, the former foreign minister referred to newly elected Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur’s remarks regarding an inquiry into the saga.

“I endorse this […] if the PTI assures us that it will accept the decision of the judicial commission […] it is not possible that someone attacks our institutions, the martyr’s memorials and we forget it.

“We cannot take our politics forward unless we address this issue and this is the reason why the PPP appeals to the PM to form a judicial commission […] Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa should form the commission,” Bilawal said.
