Aamir Liyaquat, Pak Politician and TV host, dies at 49

The head of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) was discovered unconscious at his residence in Khudad Colony and rushed to a private hospital in severe condition.

According to sources, Liaquat felt unwell on Wednesday night but declined to go to the hospital, according to Geo TV, Pakistan's local news channel.

A scream was heard from Liaquat's room Thursday morning, according to Javed, a Liaquat employee.  

From the inside, the room was locked.  

His domestic staff busted down the door to his room after receiving no reaction from the other end.

Doctors later stated that Liaquat was dead when he arrived at the hospital.  

Amir Liaquat's death prompted police to launch an inquiry. 

His home in Karachi's Khudadad Colony was also searched by the authorities.

The police will also seek CCTV video, according to Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) East, in order to gather and determine the facts surrounding the PTI leader's death.  

The police authorities have chosen to conduct a post-mortem because Liaquat's death occurred under unexplained circumstances.

According to the East SSP, the police examined Liaquat's home and found everything inorder. 

Following the collection of evidence, the authorities blocked off his bedroom.  

The family's approval for an autopsy has been obtained, according to police, after which a report on the cause of death will be written.

The police will also seek Amir's driver Javed's statement because he is the one who reported the incident to the authorities.
