ISLAMABAD: Two people — reportedly belonging to the PTI — threatened disgruntled PTI MNA Noor Alam Khan for showing reservations against Prime Minister Imran Khan ahead of the voting on the no-confidence motion.

In a viral video, the two men can be seen abusing and threatening the PTI’s dissident lawmaker at a hotel in Islamabad. Sources privacy to the matter said that the two men are the leaders of the PTI's Canada chapter — who came to Islamabad a few days back to attend the overseas convention.

The two PTI leaders harassed the lawmaker and blamed him for what they termed “acting against Pakistan.”

"Take off your mask so people can see the face of the person who has sold out Pakistan [...] I will come to Peshawar and meet you," one of the two PTI leaders says.

Noor Alam asks: “tell me what have I done?” At this, the two said that he had "sold out Pakistan".
