Omar reiterates demand for judicial commission to probe May 9 events

ISLAMABAD: In a fiery address, Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Omar Ayub rebuffed once more allegations implicating his party in the May 9 riots, asserting that the incidents were orchestrated to target PTI founder Imran Khan.

Ayub further noted the extensive damage inflicted on trains, locomotives, and railway stations during the violent protests, with Karachi alone suffering losses estimated at Rs80 to Rs90 billion over a span of three to four days. He questioned the lack of arrests, inquiries, and punitive measures against those involved in the violence in 2007, maintaining that May 9 was merely a pretext and Imran Khan was the real target.

He criticized the government’s stance on May 9 as “victim-blaming” and accused them of deliberately erasing evidence, including CCTV footage, to obstruct justice. Ayub also cited Article 19, pertaining to freedom of speech, and condemned censorship by the government, expressing concerns that his speech might not be broadcast.Advertisement

Earlier, PTI reversed its stance on engaging in dialogue with the establishment following a press conference by Director-General Inter-Services Public Relations , where the party was asked to apologize for the May 9 events.
