MULTAN: Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) leader Jamshed Dasti on Monday alleged that his wife was ‘stripped naked and his children were beaten’ by the officials of Counter-Terrorism Department and Intel people.
Dasti, 51, remained underground after eluding multiple arrest attempts in the aftermath of May 9.
Lately, he appeared in a video clip, sharing the ordeal that his house was raided by officials from intelligence agencies.
The politician from Southern Punjab alleged that his family was kept hostage for hours. The outspoken leader said he has been fighting for quite some time but state institutions went new low.
Recalling his political journey, the former lawmaker said he belonged to lower class and had been elected to the National Assembly four times.

He blamed intelligence and CTD officials for assault and keeping his family hostage to lose his mind.
The politician said that he was ready to die but would fight people who raided his house.
The teary-eyed politician urged the chief justice to take action as people’s houses and families were being attacked ahead of the elections.
