In a significant development, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leaders Imran Khan and Ali Amin Gandapur have been booked in connection with the death of a police officer during a PTI protest in Islamabad. The tragic incident took place during a demonstration organized by PTI supporters against the government. The protest, which turned violent, resulted in the unfortunate loss of a police officer’s life while he was on duty.
According to official reports, the police officer was attempting to maintain order when clashes erupted between law enforcement and demonstrators. The incident has led to heightened scrutiny of the PTI’s leadership, particularly Imran Khan and Gandapur, who are now facing serious legal charges. Authorities have accused them of inciting violence, which ultimately contributed to the officer’s death.
The Islamabad police have filed a case against both leaders, citing their alleged role in provoking the crowd and encouraging confrontations with law enforcement personnel. The case has generated widespread attention, with political tensions in the country already running high. Critics argue that the actions of PTI leadership during the protest were irresponsible and escalated an already volatile situation.
PTI has denied the allegations, stating that the protest was peaceful until the police intervened. They argue that the charges are politically motivated and aimed at weakening the party’s influence. Supporters of PTI have also voiced their concerns, claiming the government is targeting opposition figures in an attempt to stifle dissent.
As the legal proceedings unfold, the case is expected to draw even more public and media attention, potentially deepening political divides within Pakistan.
