A lawyer representing two YouTubers said the previous ruling had ‘no legal basis’ and was a ‘one-sided decision’ without giving defence a chance to be heard.
Islamabad is under siege from within. The government is struggling to protect its mandate and push back the incarcerated former PM Imran Khan and his party.
According to the unofficial provisional results reported by Geo News for 241 out of 266 seats, independent candidates, mostly backed by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf are leading with 97 seats.
On 9 May, violent protests had erupted after Imran Khan, the former prime minister and PTI party chief, was arrested from the premises of the Islamabad High Court.
Former PM and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chief alleged women are being 'abused, harassed in midnight raids' & 'it’s only a matter of time before this seething hatred comes out in the open'.
The party has also announced registering murder cases against those responsible for opening fire on 'unarmed, peaceful' people protesting in the wake of former PM Imran Khan's arrest.
Khan's lawyers contended that the case was an 'act of revenge', and that he was being targeted by the present government for his 'fearless criticism of corrupt politicians'.
Mini deal will likely see no cut in 10% baseline tariff on Indian exports announced by Trump on 2 April, it is learnt, but additional 26% tariffs are set to be reduced.
India-Russia JV is also racing to deliver 7,000 more AK-203 assault rifles by 15 Aug. These are currently being made with 50% indigenisation and this will surge to 100% by 31 December.
Public, loud, upfront, filled with impropriety and high praise sometimes laced with insults. This is what we call Trumplomacy. But the larger objective is the same: American supremacy.
