Tried killing Imran because he was ‘misleading people’: Suspect

The sole suspect caught by police has said that he wanted to kill PTI Chairman Imran Khan because "he was misleading the public."

"He (Imran) was misleading the people and I could not bear watching it so I killed him … attempted to kill him," the suspect said in a video statement.

"I tried my best to kill him. I wanted to kill Imran Khan only and no one else."

He said he was planning the assassination attempt ever since Imran left Lahore.

When asked if he had any accomplices, he replied in the negative. "There is no one else with me. I am alone."
