PTI leader Hammad Azhar reappeared on the public scene on Wednesday after almost a year in hiding.

“I received a message from Imran Khan last night after the attack on Rauf Hassan. He directed that it is now time for me to join the party leadership,” he said after showing up at the party central secretariat Islamabad today
“I have come to meet Rauf Hassan today. I will then go to Peshawar and seek interim bails and request more time. I will also appear in Punjab courts and will then leave the matter to the Almighty.”
When asked if he would be accompanied by security guards or a protocol, Azhar replied in the negative.
