Three members of the Joint Investigation Team (JIT) probing the murderous attack on Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan have been replaced after the JIT head CCPO Lahore Ghulam Mehmood Dogar blamed the members for ‘damaging’ the case.
The Punjab Home Department has issued the notification by Home Additional Chief Secretary Capt (retired) Asadullah Khan. The new JIT members include District Police Officer (DPO) Dera Ghazi Khan Muhammad Akmal, SP Anjum Kamal, and Jhang Crime Investigation Agency DSP Nasir Nawaz.
JIT head CCPO Ghulam Mehmood Dogar submitted the report against the JIT members to the additional chief secretary’s home and requested to take strict action against them.
He blamed the other members of JIT for ruining the case and said that the members of the JIT leaked the secret information to social media and mainstream media and damaged the case.

The first JIT was made on November 9, 2022, while the second JIT was constituted on November 10, 2022. On November 15, 2022, the JIT was constituted again to conduct the investigation into the case.
It is pertinent to mention here that Imran Khan and several other PTI leaders were injured after a man opened fire near the PTI reception camp at Allahwala Chowk during party’s long march.
