According to the polygraph test, the suspect lied. He said they [PTI ] were threatened to stop the long march and the attack on Imran Khan was not condemned by the government. No PML-N leader appeared before the JIT, he claimed. “We demand that the JIT should be extended cooperation.”
Omar Sarfraz Cheema said Moazzam was not killed by Imran Khan s guard as the weapons of the security guards had been cleared in the forensic test. He said the investigation would reveal whose bullet Moazzam received, adding that as per JIT report, the PTI guard did not fire any bullets.
