As reported by local media, on August 20, Imran Khan, in his speech, accused the police and authorities of detaining and torturing Dr. Shahbaz Gill, the chief of staff of the “Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf” party, which was founded by Imran Khan himself.
“Prepare yourselves, as we will take action against you,” he said in his speech, addressing the police chief and the female judge who issued the arrest warrant for Shahbaz Gill.
The authorities considered these words of the former prime minister a threat to law enforcement and government officials. Following this speech, a case was opened against Imran Khan under the article of “terrorism.” As a result, the politician may be arrested and imprisoned.
It is reported that after the news of the criminal case against the former prime minister became known, hundreds of his supporters gathered at his home in Islamabad to prevent his arrest. They threatened to seize the capital if the police attempted to arrest Imran Khan.
The “Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf” party also promised to organize mass protests across Pakistan in the event of Imran Khan’s arrest.
Former Prime Minister of Pakistan Imran Khan was ousted from power on April 9 as a result of a vote of no confidence. Since then, he has sharply criticized the government and the military and has called for new early elections.
