Pakistan: Imran Khan Maybe Arrest In Anti-Terror Case | ISH News

Pakistan’s Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) is former Prime Minister of Pakistan Imran Khan’s political party. PTI members have urged party workers and supporters to take to the streets to protest against the possible arrest of party chief, Imran Khan. Thousands of protesters are on the street protesting against the government of Pakistan and asking them not to arrest Imran Khan. The crisis began after Imran Khan’s close aide, Shehbaz Gill, was arrested on 9th August over his comments made on TV in which he said that the armed forces are in support of Imran Khan’s party and that they should not obey the government's illegal orders. The government termed this speech as seditious. So Shehbaz was arrested. The PTI has since claimed that Gill has been tortured in custody and his life remains in danger. At his rally on 20th August, Imran attacked a judge, Zeba Chaudhry and vowed to file cases against top officials of the Islamabad police. He also said that the current government of Pakistan is a Foreign government which is working at the behest of the USA. After his speech, an FIR was filed against Imran Khan by Magistrate Ali Javed for allegedly threatening the sessions judge, Zeba Chaudhry. Imran Khan was booked under the Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA). PTI leader Fawad Chaudhry has asked party workers to reach Imran Khan’s residence and told party activists to remain prepared and wait for the party's call for protest in case of Imran Khan's arrest.
