Aleema Khan Egg Attack Khawaja Asif Condemns

Egg Thrown at Aleema Khan Sparks Condemnation from Khawaja Asif

A video showing an egg being thrown at Aleema Khan during a media briefing outside Adiala Jail has gone viral on social media.

Former Foreign Minister Khawaja Asif took to X to condemn the incident, linking it to a broader decline in political discourse in Pakistan.

“Throwing shoes, splashing black ink, hurling abuses, pulling Maryam Aurangzeb’s hair at Masjid-e-Nabawi, mocking the illness of the late Begum Kulsoom Nawaz, and shouting obscenities outside hospitals — PTI introduced all of this into Pakistani politics,” he wrote.

He added, “Targeting political opponents’ families and spreading waves of filth on social media — this culture of toxicity was started by PTI. These people have been the ugliest face of our society and still are. Whether friend or foe, their actions deserve condemnation.”

Referring specifically to the Rawalpindi incident, Asif noted, “Today, an egg was thrown during an internal clash between two groups within Imran Khan’s own family. The fire has now reached their own doorstep.”

He stressed, “We strongly condemn such tactics in politics, regardless of who is targeted. Political opposition is natural, but it must remain within the bounds of decency and civility.”
