Khan said that stopping to visit the tomb is shameful.
SEHWAN SHARIF (Dunya News) – Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chief Imran Khan on late Sunday barred from entering the shrine of Lal Shahbaz Qalandar in Sehwan Sharif.
Imran Khan arrived at the mausoleum after Sehwan rally but the doors were closed after which PTI leadership requested the authorities who refused to open the gates.
In a message on social networking site, Khan said that stopping to visit the tomb is shameful and that the oppression and fascism of former president Asif Ali Zardari was evident as he is so fearful of PTI.
The oppression & fascism of Zardari and his cohorts was evident not only in their denying us permission to hold jalsa in the city

Meanwhile, Sindh Information Minister Nasir Shah said that Imran Khan wanted to go inside the shrine with his personal guards. He said if doors were closed then how Shah Mahmood Qureshi and other PTI leaders visited the tomb.
If Khan seeks forgiveness for his sins, may be he will get the permission for entry, he added.
