PAKISTAN PROTEST

Supporters of Imran Khan protest demanding his release

epa11050829 Supporters of former Prime Minister and head of political party Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf (PTI) Imran Khan, hold his pictures and PTI's vice chairman and then Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi during a protest to demand their release, in Karachi, Pakistan, 31 December 2023. Khan's nomination to contest the 2024 parliamentary elections in Pakistan has been rejected by the election body, citing his disqualification due to a corruption conviction and his status as a non-registered voter in the constituency. The 71-year-old former cricket star, who is currently serving a three-year prison sentence, has accused the authorities of preventing most of his party's candidates from participating in the upcoming elections. Khan, widely regarded as the country's most popular leader, has been embroiled in legal battles and has alleged collusion between Pakistan's military and traditional parties to hinder his political career.
