Islamabad suspended KP’s elected government on October 11. A week later the military governor invited foreign firms to extract and sell its minerals. The province’s mining register shows 20,900 km² of metal, lithium and gold reserved for auction, and the army’s copper mine in Waziristan paying the province 10% of profits. Here is how the emergency hands locals’ land to the army and foreign buyers.

Pro-democracy protests survive Pakistan regime's crackdown?
Despite internet shutdown by US-backed dictator Asim Munir, footage keeps getting out indicating organic protests may be enduring
Where is Western media concern over democracy and human rights?
As Pakistan’s government arrests opposition leaders and suspends an elected provincial government, President Trump continues to embrace its military chief.
The United States should stand with the Pakistani people, not enable political repression. We must press for the release of political prisoners, including Imran Khan.

Protesters in Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province clashed with police over the imposition of governor’s rule, citing the local government’s alleged failure to crack down on Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan fighters. Police fired on protesters, injuring at least five people.
Pakistan - State of emergency in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, imposition of governor rule and the deployment of armed forces
Reports of arbitrary detentions of key leaders – including the provincial chief minister – and internet disruptions across the province raise concerns about the proportionality of these emergency measures. While states may, in strictly limited circumstances, derogate from their human rights obligations to respond to a public emergency that threatens the existence of the nation, emergency measures are not a blank cheque to crack down on human rights, silence dissent, or concentrate power.

Everyone must turnout to vote in all the constituencies where bye elections are being held today. This is a referendum for Haqiqi Azadi from the cabal of crooks. We are contesting against all of PDM, the Election Commission and "namaloom afraad".
“The military operation in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa must be stopped immediately. ANP was made unpopular through similar actions in the past. Launching operations against our own people merely to please foreign powers does not improve the situation; it only makes it worse. In these operations, on one side our security forces are killed, and on the other, our citizens lose their lives. Killing one’s own always leads to an increase in terrorism. Drone strikes taking place in Afghanistan and Pakistan must also be halted immediately.
I instruct all members of provincial and national assemblies and the senate who are from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to come together and resist these operations and drone strikes against our own people, and to work for peace so that issues can be resolved through dialogue. At a time when people are already suffering from floods and unbearable inflation, they are now being subjected to military operations as well. This is extremely painful. History bears witness that apart from negotiations, there has never been any lasting solution to peace.
Afghanistan is our brotherly Muslim country. Afghan refugees have been living here for three generations. When the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) migrated to Madinah, the people opened their doors for him, and for this reason the Ansar (helpers) of Madinah are honored to this day. Yet we have made life unbearable for our Muslim brothers. Forcibly expelling refugees is deeply regrettable. Asim Munir is doing all this merely to appease the anti-Taliban lobby, deliberately imposing war in a place where no war exists. These measures must stop immediately, otherwise the situation will deteriorate further.”

“My so-called trial in Adiala Jail is not being conducted by a judge but by an ISI Colonel, who takes instructions directly from the Army Chief, Asim Munir. This is a military trial, not a civilian one.
Everything in Pakistan today is being done under Asim Law, with the Constitution and legal framework in shreds. Over three hundred fabricated cases have been registered against me, all of which I am facing. I will emerge with justice from the courts without making any deal. Every form of oppression has been inflicted upon our party. My wife and I would be freed today if cases were decided on merit. All our human rights have been violated. We are deprived even of the basic facilities granted to ordinary prisoners. My books are withheld, and in eight months I was allowed to speak to my children only once. The judges in my cases hold no authority; they cannot conduct the trials independently. Their decisions are dictated by a Colonel, who merely executes the orders of Asim Munir.
I instruct my entire party to remain united. This oppressive system cannot endure for long. It is essential that all of you retweet posts from my account, in a clear message of unity and alignment.
A grand public rally must be announced in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, where participants from across the country can stand together against the darkness that engulfs us.”
