The Pakistan Army on Wednesday warned former prime minister Imran Khan’s supporters of “severe retaliation” in the wake of attacks on its installations, asserting that it will not allow anyone to take the law into their hands while describing May 9 as a “black chapter” in the country’s history.
Enraged over the arrest of their leader in a corruption case on Tuesday, the supporters of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief stormed the General Headquarters of the Army and set the residence of the Lahore Corps Commander on fire while attacking military vehicles and installations. “We will not allow anyone to take the law into their hands,” Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR)—the Army’s media wing—said in a statement.
