Party workers picked up the dazed Khan immediately to get him to a hospital.
“The workers carried him and put him in the back seat of a vehicle. Khan was taken to the nearby private Fazal Hospital in Liberty Market. He was conscious and looked towards people around him,” said Sobia Khan, another PTI worker.
Khan was given first aid at the hospital and the wound on his head was stitched.
“He had a cut some six inches long on the lower part of his head. He was stable, conscious and moving all four limbs. He had severe pain in his back. There was no neurological damage” said Dr Shafique, who examined Khan at Fazal Hospital.
