He termed this act as gunda gardi (hooliganism).
He had tweeted an hour earlier than the incident suggesting that he knew of a deliberate assault.
“Will be presenting myself before the honourable judges at the Lahore High Court at 2:00 pm today,” he had written on Twitter.
Gill remained unhurt, however, a few drops of the ink landed on his face and palms, TV footage showed.
