A developing situation in Pakistan! According to the ABC News report, Pakistani police have arrested several top leaders from Imran Khan's opposition party, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI), after they were accused of inciting violence. This comes a day after some people clashed with the police near a protest calling for Imran Khan's release.
For context, Imran Khan was the Prime Minister of Pakistan until his removal in April 2022. He is currently under house arrest and has been facing charges related to corruption. The PTI party, led by Khan, has been protesting his detention and demanding his release.
The arrests of top leaders from the PTI party suggest that the government may be cracking down on opposition voices ahead of upcoming elections. This move could also lead to increased tensions between the ruling party and the opposition, potentially destabilizing the political situation in Pakistan.
It'll be interesting to see how this situation unfolds in the coming days!
