Another attempt on Imran Khan's life in making, claims Babar Awan.

ISLAMABAD -- Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) senior leader Advocate Babar Awan on Friday claimed there was strong evidence suggesting that a plan was being hatched by foreign agencies to launch another assassination attempt on PTI Chairman Imran Khan.

It should be noted that during the PTI long march, a gunman opened fire at the former prime minister in Wazirabad, Gujranwala district in November last year, injuring him in the legs.

"Some people mocked my media talk adding that the government maintains two stances on Imran Khan's life attempt," Awan said speaking at a press conference at PTI's office in Islamabad.

One was: no life attempt was made on Khan and the second he was attacked by a religious fanatic.

The former premier, who was ousted in a vote of no confidence last year, had reiterated twice that he would be attacked, while the joint Investigation Team (JIT) had also established Khan was shot at from three different directions, he added.

"Once again, Imran's life is in danger and we have strong evidence to support it. New assassination attempts are being schemed against Khan," claimed the PTI stalwart.

Demanding answers from the government regarding the security risks and threats facing the PTI chief, Awan underlined that more than 100 cases had been registered against Khan in Islamabad alone.

"Why these cases are being filed in Islamabad? Who shut the CCTV cameras? Who removed security from the anti-terrorism court (ATC), and who called the security personnel off the judicial complex?"

He went on to say: "The lawyers of Islamabad deem the Kachehri (Judicial Complex) as a death trap".

During Imran's appearance before ATC, there was no security in sight...
