The Times: rare interview from behind bars – Pakistan’s jailed former prime minister Imran Khan has said he is being caged like a terrorist

From the barracks of Rawalpindi to the halls of Washington, a sordid alliance stalks the republic of Pakistan: a military caste addicted to power, a civilian class cowed into servitude, and a foreign patron ever ready to pull the leash. What unfolds is less a grand strategy than a tragicomedy: generals trading sovereignty for sinecures, soldiers harbouring contempt for their officers, and a once-promising democratic movement crushed under the twin weights of imperial ambition and martial tutelage.

Prime Minister Imran Khan on Wednesday launched the Naya Pakistan Qaumi Sehat Card scheme to provide health insurance to families across Punjab, Islamabad, Azad Kashmir, Gilgit-Baltistan and Tharparkar.

Pakistan’s former Prime Minister Imran Khan was injured when a gunman opened fire on a political rally in Wazirabad, located in Punjab province. Officials from his party, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), confirmed that Khan sustained a bullet injury to his foot and is out of danger.

At the time of the attack, Imran Khan was leading a long march from Lahore toward Islamabad, calling for immediate general elections. Since his removal from office through a no-confidence vote in April, the former Prime Minister has addressed large public gatherings across the country.

Imran Khan, who served as Pakistan’s 19th prime minister after taking office in August 2018, has repeatedly claimed that his ouster was the result of a planned conspiracy.
