Pakistan’s anti-terrorism court issues arrest warrants for Imran Khan, his wife and 94 others

ISLAMABAD: An anti-terrorism court in Pakistan on Monday issued non-bailable arrest warrants for Imran Khan, his wife Bushra Bibi, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur and 93 others in a case related to last week’s protests in Islamabad by his party supporters.

Khan, who has been incarcerated since 2023, had on November 13 issued a “final call” for nationwide protests to be held on Nov 24, demanding the restoration of the PTI’s electoral mandate, the release of detained party members, and the reversal of the 26th Constitutional Amendment.

The main protest in Islamabad ended in clashes in which 12 PTI supporters were killed, according to the party, while hundreds were arrested.
