    Clashes were witnessed among protesting activists of Imran Khan's Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party in Islamabad over distribution of Eid gifts, Geo News reported Sunday.
     
    Chairs and club-sticks were used to attack each other as some women party workers started distributing gifts at Islamabad's D-Chowk, the protest site where cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan has been staging a sit-in protest along with his supporters for over a month against Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, demanding his resignation over alleged rigging in the 2013 general elections. 
     
    PTI activists also misbehaved with media persons and attacked them to prevent their coverage, the report added.
