Islamabad [Pakistan], May 2 : In a rather weird offer, Hanif Abbasi, special assistant to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said that anyone who rips off and brings former Interior Minister Sheikh Rashid's wig will be rewarded PKR 50,000.
Addressing a press conference in Rawalpindi, the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Shahid Abbasi said that the former Prime Minister Imran Khan, Sheikh Rashid and his nephew were involved in the planning of the Masjid-e-Nabvi's incident wherein the Shehbaz Sharif delegation was insulted.
Notably, a viral video has been circulating on social media platforms that showed hundreds of pilgrims raising "chor chor" [thieves] slogans upon seeing the delegation making their way to Masjid-e-Nabawi, reported The News International.
In a video, Information Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb and member of the National Assembly Shahzain Bugti were seen along with others.
The SAPM said that he would contest Sheikh Rashid at all the political forums adding that wherever he would want to contest elections with him, he was ready to challenge the former Minister.
He accused the PTI workers of hurling abuses at Marriyum Aurangzeb and Shahzain Bugti on Masjid-e-Nabvi premises. Calling the action a breach of the sanctity of Masjid-e-Nabvi, the Interior Minister urged punishment for all the culprits.
