Responding to indictment of Asif Ali Zardari in Toshakhana reference, Bilawal said that former president is answering false allegations.

He also lashed out at federal government for transferring IG Punjab and said that Centre refused to change IG Sindh on request of the provincial government but till now five IGs have been changed in Punjab.
