Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan’s wife, Bushra Bibi, has said that everyone left her alone at D-Chowk in Islamabad after authorities launched a crackdown on the protesters last month.
As per reports, the PTI workers were frustrated with the ones leading the November 24 protest, especially Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur and Bushra Bibi, after they retreated abruptly in the wee hours of November 27.
The party leadership suspended the protest after the authorities launched a late-night crackdown on the protesters who had forced their way to D-Chowk, despite several hurdles along the way.
Although she appeared only rarely in official photos, shielded from view during court appearances by large white sheets and always wearing a face veil, Bushra Bibi led the rally demanding her husband’s release.
When the protest was put off, Information Minister Attaullah Tarar told the media that Bushra, CM Gandapur, and others had “made a run for it” after the crackdown.
Meanwhile, a video also surfaced showing Bushra Bibi moving from her own car to CM Gandapur’s vehicle following the protest’s culmination. However, the former first lady said the vehicle was changed as Bushra’s car had a flat tyre.
