ISLAMABAD: PTI leader Firdous Ashiq Awan parted ways with PTI and Imran Khan. Announcing her departure from PTI she said all planning of May 9 incidents was made in Zaman Park. Addressing a press conference here in National Press Club she said brains of youths were poisoned under well-conceived planning and hatred for country was created in their hearts. They were used for completion of anti-Pakistan agenda.

I have not seen such incidents during my 22 years political career, she added. Pakistan first is above all for me, she remarked. I strongly condemn May 9 incident.  She claimed particular group has occupied PTI. Those who have taken Imran Khan to blind alley are standing around him. Billions of rupees were spent from national kitty to spread negative propaganda, she claimed. Monuments of martyrs were attacked under planning. When Imran Khan was Prime Minister then particular group made PM House haven and caused harm to national institutions, she stated.

 Transparent investigation into May 9 incidents be conducted and those found responsible be brought to justice. They should be awarded stern punishment so that no one could dare to cast evil eye on monuments of Shuhada. Youths are being misled. I am leaving PTI due to its violent activities. Pakistan and Imran Khan cannot go side by side, she remarked.
