In a startling turn of events, Gul Zafar Khan, a former MNA associated with the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), has accused Bajaur police of raiding his residence in the Gat Kai area of Mamond tehsil on Wednesday night.
He also claimed that police took his nine-year-old son, who reportedly has special needs.
Khan took to X(formerly Twitter) to share the distressing incident.
باجوڑ پولیس کا سابق MNA گل ظفرخان کے گھر پر چھاپہ 💔

اس کے غیر موجودگی میں ان کا 9 سالہ بیٹا اٹھا لیا گیا 😭
ہم اس غیر قانونی چھاپے کا شدید الفاظ میں مزمت کرتے ہیں

However, in a statement issued from the office of the district police officer (DPO) on Wednesday night, police confirmed that the raid was conducted on Khan’s house owing to his violation of Section 144 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, but said that no one was arrested in the raid as the former MNA was not present in his house.
A day earlier, Khan had attended a party meeting at the residence of former provincial minister Anwerzeb Khan in connection with the PTI’s convention, to be held a few days later.
Adding to the complexity of the situation, a police official said that Khan was also wanted by police in a case registered in Upper Dir district a few days ago.
Meanwhile, police on Wednesday also arrested PTI’s former MNA Gul Dad Khan for violating Section 144 CrPC, police and party sources said.
