AN INTELLIGENCE agency report submitted to Pakistan’s federal government on assassination attempt on former Prime Minister Imran Khan “does not find any conspiracy involved” and terms it a “lone-wolf” attack, a media outlet reported.

It says that no other associate of the assailant has been ascertained so far, ‘The News’ reported. While referring to the post-mortem report, it said that the wound on the head of the only deceased in the attack was apparently caused by a rifle projectile and was not due to 30 bore or 9mm pistol fire.

The report said that one assailant opened fire on the container carrying Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan and other leaders. 13 persons, including Imran Khan, sustained injuries, whereas an individual died on the spot.
