ISLAMABAD: Federal Information Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb on Saturday denied reports of torture on PTI leader Shahbaz Gill and termed claims made by PTI chairman as “propaganda”.

Addressing a press conference in the federal capital, the information minister said that propaganda was underway regarding torture and sexual abuse with Gill in order to “deflect” attention from current case against him.

She said that another fake video was circulating on social media portraying as torture on Gill. “The video on social media is of a sexual abuser from Chakwal.”

The minister said FIR against PTI leader Shahbaz Gill was lodged as per law.
