At least seven people were injured, and a person was killed in the attack on PTI chairman Imran Khan’s container during the long march in Wazirabad.
The Punjab Police said in a statement that a suspect has been taken into custody from the attack site.
The attack, characterised by the PTI as “targeted”, has triggered widespread protests across the country.
It has also garnered condemnation from across the political divide with PM Shehbaz Sharif seeking an immediate report from the interior ministry.
The ISPR has also condemned the attack.
"They could not stop him [Imran Khan] so, they tried to martyr him,” tweeted PTI’s Asad Umar. While Fawad Chaudhry claimed it was a “well planned assassination attempt on Imran Khan”.
