His arm was fractured and he received injuries on his back. He is currently being treated at the National Hospital in Lahore and is reportedly improving.
According to his brother Bilal Chaudhry, he was injured in a fight outside a female MNA’s house in Faisalabad.
Punjab Government Spokesperson Fayyazul Hassan Chohan and PM’s aide Shahbaz Gill both said he was harassing the female MNA, who is also from the PML-N.
The woman MNA reportedly called the Faisalabad CCPO about the incident but has not registered an FIR. Chaudhry hasn’t registered a case either.
Chohan said that the incident is now a test for Maryam Nawaz and that she should remove Chaudhry from the party.
