Shehbaz Sharif Government to Ban Imran Khan's PTI Party Over Allegations
Jul 15, 2024, 10:05 AM
The Shehbaz Sharif-led Pakistani government has announced its intention to ban the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party, led by jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan. Information Minister Attaullah Tarar stated that the decision is based on allegations that the PTI engaged in anti-state activities, including inciting violent riots on May 9 and attempts to sabotage Pakistan's deal with the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The government plans to seek approval from the Supreme Court for the ban. This move follows a recent court decision that had favored the PTI, allowing it back into parliament. The PTI, which is the largest opposition party in Pakistan, has reacted strongly, calling the government's actions a sign of panic and desperation.
