Troops demand from Army Chief to arrest Hamza
Earlier, Punjab Governor Omar Sarfraz Cheema claimed that if Chief of Army Staff General Qamar Javed Bajwa provided him with a Subedar and four young men, he would arrest the recently sworn in Chief Minister Hamza Shahbaz and put him in jail. Will
He said the province was facing a constitutional and legal crisis and had been "held hostage by force", calling the silence of political parties "extremely worrying".
He said that if everyone accepted the formula of Hamza Shahbaz to become the Chief Minister of Punjab, then the rest of the provinces should start worrying.
The crisis in Punjab began when the governor refused to take oath from the newly elected Chief Minister on April 17, a day after the election of Hamza Shahbaz as the Chief Minister in a tumultuous session of the Punjab Assembly.
Omar Sarfraz Cheema had given reasons for not taking oath in the report of the secretary, directions of Lahore High Court (LHC) and facts presented before him in which objections were raised on the validity of the election.
Several members of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) were injured during the tumultuous session of the Punjab Assembly.
Among those injured was Assembly Speaker Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi, one of the two chief ministerial candidates.
Hamza polled 197 votes, including 26 deviant members of the PTI, while Pervez Elahi received no votes because PTI and PML-Q lawmakers thought he had the vote. Giving is not allowed.
Three requests and deadlock
Hamza Shahbaz had approached the Lahore High Court on April 21 over the governor's refusal to take oath, which had directed President Arif Alvi to appoint a representative to take oath in the absence of the governor.
However, after the President delayed the execution of the court order, Hamza approached the court for the second time on April 25 and asked the Supreme Court to direct Senate Chairman Sadiq Sanjrani to take oath from him. In his order, Lahore High Court Chief Justice Amir Bhatti had directed Governor Omar Sarfraz Cheema to complete the swearing in of Hamza by April 28.
Hamza Shahbaz Sharif had approached the High Court for the third time on April 29 when the President and the Governor failed to implement the court directions.
The next day, on the instructions of the court, the Speaker of the National Assembly, Raja Pervez Ashraf, finally administered the oath of office to Hamza Shahbaz.
However, just hours before Hamza's swearing-in ceremony, Omar Sarfraz Cheema rejected the resignation of former chief minister Usman Bazdar and restored his cabinet, which later convened a meeting.
During the swearing-in ceremony, Omar Sarfraz Cheema had urged the Chief Justice to take notice of this "bullying" in the Governor's House. He asserted that his confession had been obtained through torture, and that his confession had been obtained through torture.
The governor had also termed the notification of Hamza Shahbaz as the Chief Minister as 'fake'.
In a press conference the next day, he had said that the reason for all the strife was the resignation of Usman Bazdar.
