"Federal government will extend all support necessary to Punjab govt for security & investigation. Violence should have no place in our country's politics," Sharif said.




Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan was wounded in the shin when his convoy was shot at in Wazirabad, nearly 200 km from the capital, Islamabad. A member of his party said several colleagues were also wounded amid reports one had been killed.



There were hundreds of people in the convoy when the former cricketer was leading a protest march on Islamabad to demand snap elections.



Since being ousted in April through a parliamentary vote, Imran Khan has held rallies across Pakistan, stirring opposition against the Sharif-led government.
