Imran Khan

A conviction against Khan, who is to appear before the Islamabad High Court on August 31, would mean disqualification from politics for life.

The charges came over a speech he made recently, vowing to sue police officers and a judge over the alleged torture of a close aide.

For most of its history, Pakistan has had turbulent relations with the United States, leading to deep-rooted public antipathy.

With his party’s victory in the Punjab by-elections, he is pushing for early general elections. Will his opponents in the civilian and military establishment concede his demand?

The former Pakistani prime minister has given the Shehbaz Sharif government six days to call elections.

Rapprochement could help ease Pakistan’s troubles with negotiating loans from the IMF.

The new government could either take the decision of cutting fuel subsidies or call for fresh elections and leave that tough decision to an interim government.

Within a month of his ouster, the former Pakistani PM has been able to revive his support base substantially, prompting many to believe that he could win an election today.

Imran Khan’s narrative of conspiracy and regime change is a symptom, not a cause, of anti-American sentiments in Pakistan.

While Khan has lost the prime minister’s office, his core base of supporters has not abandoned him. 

Imran Khan’s unceremonious fall from the prime minister’s office has only reinvigorated his devoted supporters.

The former prime minister had been outspoken about addressing the issue of enforced disappearances. But even before his ouster, Baloch had long since given up hope that he would take action.
