LAHORE: The Punjab Home Department has issued a high-alert to the security institutions over an assassination threat to Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif from Indian intelligence agency, Research and Analysis Wing (RAW).
According to a circular issued by the provincial Home Department here on Saturday, RAW has weaved a plan to assassinate PM Nawaz Sharif while a number of other prominent personalities in Pakistan are also in RAW’s cross-hairs.
In view of the latest threat arising from RAW, the circular carries strict orders for the law enforcing departments to take all necessary measures to ensure fool-proof security of the PM and others.
PM Nawaz Sharif’s special assistant Musadik Malik when contacted told Geo News that it was a conspiracy but ‘we know how to protect our Prime Minister’.
