Pakistan: Former PM Imran Khan booked for ‘terrorising police, judiciary’ in Islamabad speech
Islamabad: PTI Chairman Imran Khan, who was ousted as the Prime Minister of the country after a no confidence motion was passed against him, was booked under Section 7 of the Anti-Terrorism Act (punishment for acts of terrorism) regarding his comments at his Islamabad rally a day ago, media reports said on Sunday.
The first information report (FIR), a copy of which is available with Dawn News, was registered at Islamabad’s Margalla police station at 10pm on Saturday under the complaint of magistrate Ali Javed.
The FIR said that at the PTI’s rally at F-9 park a day ago, Imran had “terrorised and threatened top police officials and a respected female additional sessions judge” in his address.
The FIR reproduced the PTI chairman’s comments where he spoke about the female judge and the Islamabad police officials.
In his address on Saturday, Imran had threatened to file cases against Islamabad’s inspector general of police and deputy inspector general of police and was quoted as saying by Dawn News: “We won’t spare you.”
