LAHORE: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf's (PTI) candidate for NA-120 Yasmin Rashid on Tuesday threatened the Punjab government to be prepared for grave consequences if it failed to register a First Information Report (FIR) for a firing incident on her party office on Sunday.

The police arrested three people on charges of firing in the air in front of the offices of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) and PTI NA-120 candidates in Islampura on Sunday.

The accused ? identified as Assad, Hamza, and Sher Ali ? drove away after opening indiscriminate fire in front of the offices of PTI and PPP at Neeli Bar Chowk, Islampura, on the second day of Eid.

Talking to the media, Rashid said, "Rana Sanaullah should either declare that he is in a mood to fight or control the hooligans firing [at her office]," adding that the PTI would stage protests on all forums if the police failed to register an FIR for the incident.

She further said that the public would 'throw stones on the Sharif family's cars' if they get a chance to visit Jati Umra -- which is the Sharif family's residence located in Raiwind.

"Maryam shouldn't claim that her father is not guilty of the accusations levelled against him, because if she truly believes in that she should be open to debate about his honesty with me," Rashid lashed at the Sharif family.

She also announced her plan to contact the Election Commission of Pakistan for excessive coverage of the Pakistan Muslim League - Nawaz's (PML-N) election campaign on the state-owned television channel.

The three arrested people were not affiliated with any political party, the police claimed, adding their objective was to only disturb peace in the area. The assailants' car was impounded.

PPP's candidate for NA-120, Faisal Mir, said an application for the FIR was filed on Sunday, alleging that the objective behind the incident was to harass the candidates.
