PML-N leader Ahsan Iqbal has said that he supported the demand for a judicial inquiry into the May 9 riots as long as other similar incidents involving the PTI were also probed.

In a post on X, he said that along with the probe into the events last year, the commission should also inquire into several other incidents including the 2014 dharna, attacks on PTV and Parlament, and attacks on police outside Zaman Park.

“A so called political party which has a consistent policy and history of employing violence as a political tool, used it again on 9th May as an instrument of its politics,” Iqbal added.
