He further said that media owner Salman Iqbal did not have any ties with the murder and invited him to return to Pakistan and join the investigation.
About the PTI, Vawda reiterated that he still considers Imran Khan his leader, but blamed some of his advisors for pushing him into a blind alley.
He suggested that Imran first clean up the party.
