Tarar asks Imran to tender apology over violence He recalled Mr Khan’s earlier claim that he would apologise if video evidence implicating the PTI in the riots was presented. “This footage clearly shows PTI members engaged in vandalism. They kept demanding evidence, and now all of it is before the nation,” Mr Tarar added.
