Islamabad: Pakistan’s former prime minister Imran Khan has been granted protection for the next two weeks from the Islamabad high court after getting bail from the Supreme Court of Pakistan for all the cases filed against him. This is a great relief for Imran Khan and his associates. However, internal Security Minister Rana Sanaullah has warned of fresh cases against Imran Khan concerning violence and vandalism in the last three days after his arrest. Analysts feel that the present government and the military will not let Imran Khan off the hook.
Moreover, Imran Khan was arrested for charges of irregularity which were followed by his arrest. However, Imran Khan accused that his arrest was part of a plan to assassinate him. Hence, he appealed to the people to take to the streets in protests. However, the protests turned violent, and the supporters of Imran Khan attacked army posts and officers vandalised public property. A reliable source has yet to account for the loss of lives during the protests. Pakistan’s army has taken serious note of this.
Thus, observers claim that although the Islamabad High Court has protected him for two weeks, he is not yet off the hook. Pakistan’s Internal Security Minister Rana Sanaullah has held Imran Khan responsible for provoking his supporters to cause violence nationwide. Rana Sanaullah informed that the protesters used weapons. Imran Khan cannot be arrested, but fresh cases for inciting violence will be filed against Imran Khan.
Meanwhile, journalists and analysts in Pakistan have vowed not to spare Imran Khan for inciting violence against them. Hence, it seems that Imran Khan and his party will have to pay a heavy price for this in the future.
