His statement came as the interim Punjab government gave a 24-hour deadline for PTI to hand over “30-40 terrorists who had taken refuge” at the former chief minister’s residence to the police.

Interim Information Minister Aamir Mir said while speaking at a press conference in Lahore earlier on Wednesday: “The PTI should hand over these terrorists, otherwise the law will take its course.”
