Azra Afridi, an education officer of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), on Wednesday interrupted the press conference of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan to voice her grievances against the provincial education department.

The PTI chief had to stop the press conference as the woman started protesting against some corrupt officers of the KP Education Department who had lodged a first investigation report (FIR) against her.

Imran asked the woman to hold herself down but she continued to tell about her predicament in a louder voice.

Since the woman continued her protest before the media without listening to Imran Khan, he had to leave the press conference in the middle.

Later talking to newsmen, Azra alleged that a PTI’s MPA, KP Education Minister Muhammad Atif Khan, Education Secretary Afzal Latif, Education Special Secretary Atif, Director Rafiq Khattak and Officers Rehana Yasmeen and Yasmeen Hafeez are all corrupt and involved in corruption cases. Such corrupt officials of the education department have complete support and protection of the PTI government, she claimed.

She said she had prepared a report against ghost employees and teachers which was the reason behind her dismissal and lodging of an FIR against her by the top education officials.

Copies of the FIR were distributed among the media men. Azra alleged that nobody in the KP government was ready to listen to her.

PTI leaders, who were present at the press conference, first tried to pacify Azra and then made an effort to stop her from presenting her point of view before media.

She, however, refused to listen to them and kept speaking about her plight.
