PTI Chairman Imran Khan’s ex-wife Jemima Goldsmith praised the young man on social media who thwarted the attack on PTI Chairman Imran Khan.
Khan sustained bullet injuries in his leg and is currently undergoing treatment at Shaukat Khanum Hospital in Lahore.
Goldsmith, who separated from Khan in 2004, thanked God for being spared the attack and added that the news was “terrifying”.
He said Khan’s sons were grateful to the “brave man” who tackled the gunman and saved their father’s life.
The news we dread…

Ibtisam told the press that the gunman was not ready to shoot. He added that the pistol used by the attacker was automatic and continued to fire even after it was taken from him.
He expressed regret for not holding the gunman earlier and preventing the first fire.
Many prominent names have taken to social media to condemn the “cowardly attack” on the chairman.
