PTI News, Updates and Discussion

[El Sidd]

Yes but if you look any other revolutions there is always a foreign element. Khomeini was supported by France and the west as they were nervous about communist takeover. The bolsheviks were supported by Germany and possibly the US. in fact Lenin was in Germany and they let him go to Russia with full blessing. The orange blessing had US all over it, Recent Syria revolution was supported by Turkey and possibly US. I think the people have no chance against a brutal regime…they do need support from outside

Which is your preferred country?

Your establishment hasn't learned anything from History. No one can stay in power forever, great powers of the past now remain in history books, sooner they realize it better it is for them. 100 years from now, parents will be telling their children that "Pakistani Establishment" almost destroyed Pakistan for their temporary gain.

According to the order, the 108 convicts will receive copies of the order and will be able to file an appeal within 15 days. Additionally, arrest warrants have been issued for those convicted in absentia, including Shibli Faraz, Omar Ayub, Rai Murtaza Iqbal and Zartaj Gul Wazir.

Meanwhile, 77 accused were acquitted because the prosecution “miserably failed to prove the alleged offence”.

In a post on X, the PTI condemned the sentences in the strongest terms and branded the cases “false, fabricated, and politically motivated”, adding that the opposition leaders in both houses were sentenced to prevent the party’s mass mobilisation on August 5.

“Through this decision, six of our National Assembly members, three Punjab Assembly members and one senator have been sentenced,” the party stated. “This decision is not only a clear violation of the Constitution and the law but also another dark stain on the face of justice.

“The judiciary’s continuous transformation into a rubber stamp at the behest of the state system, issuing such grave verdicts one after another under political pressure without transparent trials, evidence, cross-examination of witnesses, or the right to defence, is a dangerous trend that is completely undermining the credibility of the judicial system,” the statement added.

The PTI added that this is the “first time” opposition leaders in both houses of parliament have been sentenced “solely based on their loyalty to Imran Khan’s political narrative, public representation, and constitutional struggle”.

“The real purpose of these decisions is not to deliver legal justice but to make a concerted effort to prevent the public protest scheduled for August 5, which was announced by Imran Khan himself,” the party claimed.

“Today’s sentences and the warrants issued against several other leaders this morning are all links in the chain of fear that the state system harbours toward Imran Khan’s peaceful public movement.”

Moreover, the party branded the sentences “part of a systematic plan aimed at suppressing the public awakening and political consciousness emerging under Imran Khan’s leadership”.

However, the PTI wrote that these sentences only ignited their resolve, ahead of the protests slated for August 5.

“Imran Khan’s vision lives in our hearts, and our loyalty to it remains unwavering. Our leaders and workers are ready for every sacrifice, because we believe that only those nations survive the darkness of oppression that resist,” the statement read.

The Human Rights Commission of Pakistan deplored the mass sentencing.

“While those involved in violence must be held accountable, the use of anti-terror laws to try civilians raises serious due-process concerns and is symptomatic of the continued erosion of democratic values. We reiterate that all those accused must receive fair, transparent trials in civilian courts and urge the state to refrain from using draconian laws to stifle political dissent.”

Finally, criminals are facing justice. This should have been done two years ago just like other nations with dignity punish terrorists within days and weeks. Anyhow, it's good that long hand of law is finally moving.

Mian Sanp himself came to power through military dictatorship of General Zia. Why would he care about democracy lol?

Sure, they can do that all they want, but the problem is that they have no case to plead.

The ICJ does not have jurisdiction, and why would the same entity that IK lambasted as having him kicked out help him out now, even unofficially? Unless, of course, IK offers them something in return. Which, of course, would make IK a pawn of the Unholy Umreekis too.

Interesting, no?

Trump wont stop celebrating deals and economic cooperation and partnership with Pakistan. the social media is such a great place to see Indians and PTI cult followers competing in bad mouthing on America Pakistan relationship homecoming
