KARACHI: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf has suspended the membership of Dr Imran Ali Shah for a month after he was caught on camera thrashing a citizen in Karachi.
Shah, who was elected MPA from Karachi’s PS-129 constituency during the July 25 polls, was caught on video slapping a man multiple times in the middle of a road in Karachi.
Due to the seriousness of the matter, a suspension by the organization is warranted for a period of one month with immediate effect.
Final action will be based on the recommendations of the Disciplinary Committee.#NA256 #Karachi #PTI #PS129

The video also showed the MPA’s guards threatening the man.
After backlash on social media, the PTI lawmaker had released a video claiming that he was driving by when he saw a man “repeatedly hitting a poor man’s car and stopped him”.
The PTI lawmaker further claimed that he had only ‘pushed’ the man and apologised for “hurting anyone’s feelings”.
