Qadri adds two more demands to Model Town list
[DAWN] Pakistain Awami Tehrik (PAT) chief Tahirul Qadri
...Pak politician, and would-be dictator, founder and head of Tehreek-e-Minhajul Quran and Pakistain Awami Tehrik. He usually resides in Canada, but returns to Pakistain periodically to foam at the mouth and lead demonstrations. Depending on which way the wind's blowing, Qadri claims to be the author of Pak's blasphemy law. Other times he says it wasn't him...
on Thursday made addition to his earlier three demands as he now wants immediate arrest and physical remand of all those involved in Model Town incident and recovery of weapons of offence from them.

For the last few weeks, Qadri has been insisting on three demands, ie resignation of Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif
...Pak dynastic politician, brother of PM Nawaz Sharif, chief minister of Punjab...
and Law Minister Rana Sanaullah, temporary removal of suspected babus bureaucrats and police officials from active duty and formation of a joint investigation team (JIT) on the pattern of the Panama Leaks.

Though he avoided any specific date and plan for his protest movement, which he was expected to announce, he asked the PAT workers to stay on toes for such a call.

"Both the PPP and the PTI are sitting on my left and right, soon the JI will also be on board ‐ for a movement," Mr Qadri claimed while addressing a lawyers’ convention at PAT Secretariat in Model Town.

"Today, the lawyers’ community has put its weight behind us, which would give new energy to our plans. We have already staged two sit-ins (for the removal of government), the third one would be decisive."
