'Won't be cowed': PUC Chairman Tahir Ashrafi heckled in London
Pakistan Ulema Council (PUC) Chairman Hafiz Tahir Ashrafi was heckled by a group of overseas Pakistanis apparently supporters of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) in central London.
The video clips of the event, which went viral on social press, showed that a group of alleged PTI-affiliated Insaf Learners Federation (ISF) members surrounded the PUC chairman while he was walking at the Edgware Road in central London.
The group followed Ashrafi for around 10 minutes, engaging him in a heated exchange.
"I was attacked and harassed when I was on Edgware Road going for dinner with my female members," Ashrafi stated while speaking to Geo News exclusively.
Condemning the statute as "highly condemnable", he stated that he will not be cowed by this "thuggish behaviour". "These individuals have caused a huge pact of damage to Imran Khan and PTI,” he further stated.
