MULTAN: Police in Multan filed a case against PPP workers after they broke through security barriers and stormed into Multan's Qila Qasim Bagh on Saturday ahead of a Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) rally scheduled to take place there on Monday.

The PPP group to charge at the venue was led by sons of former prime minister Yousuf Raza Gilani, Ali Haider Gilani and Musa Gilani.

The party's workers were able to storm into the stadium despite the heavy police contingent deployed there, following which clashes occurred between the workers and law enforcement agencies.

According to the PPP Media Cell, their workers have taken control of the administration of the stadium and have also set up a welcoming camp outside.

On the other hand, PML-N workers led a rally in Multan and also entered the stadium after it was broken into.

“The rally will be held in Qila Qasim Bagh.  Today all the barriers of the police and administration have been broken down. After storming the gates, we have taken control of the stadium,” PPP leader Musa Gilani said.
