Peshawar:
The Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister’s spokesperson has stated that security has already been provided to Awami National Party (ANP) Chief Aimal Wali Khan and his continuous complaints and sarcastic comments indicate that his objective is political point scoring rather than genuine security concerns.
In an official statement issued on Monday, the spokesperson said the facts should not be distorted. “Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur personally contacted Aimal Wali regarding his security. The Regional Police Officer (RPO) and District Police Officer (DPO) also asked him to provide a list of personnel he trusted for his security details, but he did not share any list,” the statement added.
The spokesperson further commented that raising objections or mocking the arrangements at this stage is unfair and malicious. “There is no difference whether security personnel are deployed from police lines or at a local police station, the key point is that Aimal Wali Khan’s protection has been ensured.”
He clarified that since Aimal Wali Khan is elected as senator of Balochistan, the constitutional responsibility for his security lies primarily with the government of Balochistan and federal institutions.
“By turning this matter into a political controversy, Aimal Wali Khan is trying to mislead the public and gain political mileage,” the spokesperson concluded.
