Strongly condemn the pre-planned attack on Shahbaz Gill. Culprits must be held accountable. Noon ki badmashi nahi chali gee. Where is the "Fain Fain Class" ? No condemnation ? https://t.co/OvAPAX8wxs

This culture is on the rise because of politicians. If Shahbaz Gill and the government spokesman had discouraged the incident with Ahsan Iqbal, this incident would not have happened today.#شہباز_گل_کا_منہ_کالا pic.twitter.com/tfcNBYypEs

سیاسی ماحول میں تلخی بڑھ رہی ہے۔ آج لاہور ہائی کورٹ میں اچھا نہیں ہوا مگر شہباز گل کا ردعمل بھی انتہائی نامناسب رہا۔ ایسے ماحول میں حکومت پر زیادہ بڑی زمہ داری ہے۔ #ShahbazGill pic.twitter.com/92kw6OfcQa

“Journalist friends found out that the PML-N’s gangster group was preparing to attack me. I am Imran Khan’s soldier. I will come to court, I am not afraid of you. Believe in politics, not in bullying like you,” he added.
آج 2 بجے دوپہر لاہور ہائی کورٹ میں معزز عدالت کے سامنے پیش ہو رہا ہوں۔ صحافی دوستوں سے پتہ چلا کہ مسلم لیگ ن کے غنڈا گروپ نے میرے پر حملہ کرنے کی تیاری کر رکھی ہے۔ عمران خان کا سپاہی ہوں۔عدالت آؤں گا آپ سے ڈرنے والا نہیں۔ سیاست کرنے پر یقین رکھتے ہیں آپ کی طرح غنڈا گردی پر نہیں۔
