President Dr Arif Alvi has said that the blatant day-time attack on Mr Imran Khan, ex-Prime Minister and Chairman of one of the largest political parties of Pakistan, is highly alarming, worrying and condemnable act. “I am praying for the safety, security and health of Mr Imran Khan and for all others who have been injured according to initial reports”, he said.
