PPP co-chair Bilawal Bhutto Zardari lashed out at the government for the violence against young doctors in Quetta, terming the act “state thuggery”.

“Instead of providing them with the requisite protective gear, the government has sent them to jail. At a time when they are needed in hospitals doctors have been sent to jails. What kind of justice is this?” questioned Bilawal.

He said rather than fulfilling their deserving demands, the PTI government is quashing their basic human rights.

“The PPP is standing with you. Do not consider yourself alone,” he said in his message to Quetta's doctors.

Bilawal lamented that while doctors all around the world were being praised and supported for being on the frontlines in the war against the virus, “Pakistan’s state is sending them to jails.”
