A family member who last week heckled PML-N leader Ahsan Iqbal claimed that there was “no pressure” on them and that they “willingly” apologized to the federal minister.
Following PTI’s Shahbaz Gill’s assertion that they were “threatened” and “pressured” to apologize, family member Osama Sher expressed regret for the behavior and clarified their position.
He said, “We realized that we made a mistake.
They went to Ahsan Iqbal’s house voluntarily and expressed regret for their behavior, according to Osama Sher, who claimed there was no pressure on them.
“I have no idea where such things on social media originate. The decision to apologize was entirely ours, and our family also accepted responsibility for our actions.
ان بیچاروں پر پریشر ڈلوا کر۔ دھمکیاں دے کر۔ ریاستی مشینری استعمال کر کے معزرت کروا لینے سے کیا آپ چور نہیں رہیں گے ؟ آپ چور ہیں اور رہتی دنیا تک دنیا آپکو اسی تعارف سے جانے گی۔

آپ کتنے چھوٹے آدمی ہیں کہ پریشر ڈال کر گھر آئے لوگوں وہ بھی ایک خاتون کی معذرت پر شیخی مار رہے ہیں۔ https://t.co/vd30hg0jXW
On Sunday, the family had visited the PML-N leader’s home and “expressed remorse and embarrassment.”
The incident’s family came to Narowal and apologized for their actions in our meeting and expressed regret and embarrassment, Ahsan Iqbal wrote in a tweet that included a photo of them visiting him at home.
Iqbal claimed to have previously stated he “won’t be taking legal action against them.”
“We’re all from Pakistan. We must maintain respect for one another and not let our differences turn into animosity “Added he.
Iqbal received taunts on Friday at the eatery where he ostensibly had dinner.
People were seen cursing at the minister in the incident’s video, which quickly gained popularity on social media.
Iqbal later posted on Twitter that “a family — who apparently considered themselves elites and supported PTI — clashed with me.”
He added that as a response, other diners at the restaurant began chanting anti-PTI slogans. “Instead of holding a dialogue with me, they started chanting slogans,” he wrote.
Iqbal criticised PTI Chairman Imran Khan for “instilling hatred” in society and stated that his supporters “are following suit” just like their ignorant and insane leader.
