A large contingent of the Punjab Police on Saturday raided PTI Chairman Imran Khan’s Zaman Park residence in Lahore, with power shovels in tow, which they used to dismantle the various structures, bunkers and barricades erected outside the site.
A video posted by PTI showed police attacking workers inside what the party said was inside the residence.
A separate video showed a power shovel smashing through what appeared to be the front gate to Imran’s Zaman Park house, following which police personnel were seen entering the premises.
