In the following tweet, he posted the picture of Bani Gala while encircling the home of the prime minister, terming it PM Hill. However, in this tweet, he said the prime minister lives 3.5 kilometers from the scene of the crime.
PM lives exactly 3.5 kms from the place of the crime. Last month on my nephew’s wedding evening police came and said ‘no music, no fireworks’ as this was next to PM residence. They went back when told that music, fireworks were happening in another house, of a local PTI leader. pic.twitter.com/QN5CNcsSzg
