Imran Khan, the former Prime Minister of Pakistan currently imprisoned, has made a 'final call' for a protest to be held in Islamabad on November 24. His sister, Aleema Khan, announced the news after a visit to Adiala Jail, urging supporters to rally for his release.
Addressing his followers, Khan emphasized the critical juncture, urging Pakistanis to choose between living under martial law or fighting for their freedom. He highlighted the importance of defending the democratic foundations allegedly eroded since the last vote.
The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party has also announced a long march to press for judicial restoration, the release of detained leadership, and election fairness. This demonstration represents a crucial effort after a series of previous unsatisfactory protests since September.
