🚨 BLACK DAY FOR DEMOCRACY IN PAKISTAN!

AN ELECTED GOVERNMENT SUSPENDED. ELECTED LEADERS ILLEGALLY ABDUCTED.
DEMOCRACY UNDER SIEGE!

The reported suspension of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s democratically elected PTI government and provincial assembly marks a grave assault on Pakistan’s constitutional order.

Chief Minister Sohail Afridi and other elected PTI leaders have reportedly been ILLEGALLY ABDUCTED BY FASCIST FORCES, amid allegations of military-backed repression under Field Marshall Asim Munir.

250 MILLION PAKISTANIS DESERVE DEMOCRACY, NOT UNDECLARED MARTIAL LAW!

🌍 THE WORLD MUST NOT REMAIN SILENT! And stop Pakistan from going in to a civil war like situation due to military occupation.

The United States, European Union, United Kingdom, and all democratic nations must condemn this fascist action and demand:

• Immediate restoration of democracy, elected provincial government and constitutional rule.

• Immediate release of all unlawfully abducted political leaders and protesters.

• An end to military interference, political persecution, and suppression of peaceful dissent.

• Suspension of security cooperation enabling repression until constitutional democracy is restored.

🇺🇸 U.S. CONGRESS MUST STAND FOR DEMOCRACY AND CONSTITUTIONAL RULE IN PAKISTAN!

No general is above Pakistan’s Constitution. Pakistan belongs to its people, not its military.

Congress must condemn repression, demand constitutional rule, and review U.S. assistance enabling abuses.

SILENCE ENABLES TYRANNY!

[Mubarak khan @theageof804]

These Patwaris & Faujeets keep taunting PTI supporters, claiming that Shehbaz Sharif has saved the world from World War 3, when my leader has been saying for the past eight years that war is not the solution.

He never wanted to drag Pakistan into rented wars. He created strong resistance against such involvement, and that was a huge service to the nation. His sole focus was to give Pakistan and its people a dignified life, where the country could make its own independent decisions and free itself from the influence of Zionist interests.

The Epstein files also proved that Imran Khan poses a significant threat to the interests of the US and Israel. And that is why he is in jail today. There is a reason why those who profit from wars have kept him behind bars for the past four years.

Today, once again, it has been proven that my leader neither bowed down nor sent his people to their deaths, nor did he allow his nation to be humiliated before the world.

InshaAllah, he will return once again, and this time, he will teach a lesson not only to the oppressors in Pakistan but to the entire world.

[Hussain Nadim @HNadim87]

It takes some time, but eventually, Imran Khan is almost always proven right on the big things.

He is the most powerful voice for peace, justice, and human dignity in the world at a time when all three are in short supply.

There is a reason why those who want to cash wars have kept him locked up in a prison cell for the last 3+ years.

Thank you @SenMarkey for standing with the people of Pakistan and calling for the release of political prisoners, including Imran Khan. We urge @SFRCdems @SenateForeign Senate Foreign Relations leaders @SenatorRisch @SenatorShaheen and @ChrisVanHollen to speak up for democracy and human rights in Pakistan.

My statement on the state of democracy in Pakistan.

[Hussain Nadim @HNadim87]

If a military dictator actually wanted to do good, he’d subject himself to the highest level of accountability, not lifetime immunity.

Immunity is for those who want to ruin the country unchecked. Accountability is for those who genuinely want to build it.

Full Statement

[FirstPakistanGlobal @FirstPakGlobal]

FOUR YEARS WITHOUT ARSHAD SHARIF

Four years ago today, on October 23, 2022, Pakistani investigative journalist Arshad Sharif was shot dead by Kenyan police outside Nairobi. Police called it a case of mistaken identity.

Mr. Sharif, a prominent television anchor critical of Pakistan's military establishment, had left Pakistan in August 2022 after multiple criminal cases, including sedition charges, were registered against him.

In December 2022, Pakistan's own fact-finding team concluded the killing was a "planned, targeted assassination" and said people in Kenya, Dubai or Pakistan may have been involved.

Four years later, no one has been convicted.

🔹 In July 2024, Kenya's High Court ruled the shooting unlawful.
🔹 In July 2026, Kenya's Supreme Court declined to order prosecution of the officers.
🔹 Three men named in the criminal case remain at large.
🔹 In February 2026, the Federal Constitutional Court ended its oversight of the investigation, despite a written plea from his widow, Javeria Siddique, to keep it open.

His late mother, who died in October 2025 still seeking justice, asked that senior military and intelligence officials be named in the case. They were not. Pakistan's military rejects any suggestion of involvement. If that is so, an independent and transparent investigation should be welcomed by all sides.

First Pakistan Global calls on:

✅ Pakistan to make public the findings of the Special Joint Investigation Team
✅ Kenya to make a public charging decision on the officers involved
✅ Both governments to accept an independent international investigation, as Reporters Without Borders has urged
✅ @StateDept and Members of Congress to raise the case with both governments

Impunity in this case sends a message to every Pakistani journalist who asks hard questions.

@CAGEintl is a human rights organisation that has worked since 2003 with Guantánamo detainees, victims of rendition and communities targeted under counterterrorism laws. Its decision to name Imran Khan a War on Terror prisoner of conscience deserves attention.

A former Prime Minister has been held for more than three years in a series of politically charged cases, with serious concerns about due process, access to his lawyers and family, and his conditions of detention.

Whatever one's politics, this is a test of Pakistan's commitment to the rule of law. Political disagreement must be settled at the ballot box, not in a prison cell.

We join the call for his release. #FreeImranKhanNow

[CAGE International @CAGEintl]

Here’s why a former Pakistani Prime Minister has been declared a War on Terror prisoner of conscience.

Imran Khan spent years challenging Pakistan’s subservience to America and its complicity in the War on Terror

From the devastating war that killed over 50,000 people, to the rendition of Mullah Abdul Salam Zaeef and cases like Aafia Siddiqui, Khan’s stance exposed a deeper reality: America’s so-called war on terror has long depended on Pakistan’s cooperation.

Today, we continue to call for his unconditional release.

🇵🇰 EXCLUSIVE: IMRAN KHAN'S SONS SAY THE PAKISTANI GOVERNMENT IS TRYING TO KILL THEIR FATHER!

I spoke again with Qasim and Sulaiman Khan, and this conversation was the most heartbreaking.

Not only is their father, the former Prime Minister of Pakistan, still in solitary confinement, but his three courageous sisters, Aleema, Uzma and Noreen, have now also been arrested

And when @PTIofficial supporters hit the streets, many were arrested, beaten, and even killed!

Imran Khan’s sons say they haven't spoken to their father in over 6 months, nobody has seen him for 2 months, and they're increasingly worried about his deteriorating health.

I asked them the hardest question of all: Do they still believe they’ll ever see their father again?

Qasim admitted, he has very little hope, but they will never stop fighting

I told them both I wouldn't give up hope.

And I meant it.

[Hussain Nadim @HNadim87]

Governor Raj and emergencies are the clearest remnants of the colonial era.

Every time Pakistan's ruling elite imposes them, it gives an insight into how they treat the country as a colony to rule, rob, and extract from, while building their lives, wealth, and families abroad.

Pakistan needs another Independence 2.0; this time from those that look, talk and pray like them but behave like foreign colonizers.

[FirstPakistanGlobal @FirstPakGlobal]

Satire this sharp once aired on Pakistani national TV. The late Moin Akhtar & Masood Anwar knew laughter could carry truths that speeches couldn't. That space has now closed. When a nation finally understands the joke, and the jokers are silenced. #PressFreedom #Pakistan #Asimlaw

🚨🇵🇰 Imran Khan's family says Pakistani authorities are using a LEGAL maze to keep his sisters behind bars.

And the statement raises allegations that go far beyond ordinary public-order detention...

Aleema and Uzma Khan were acquitted on Feb 25 in cases later cited to justify their detention, while they had bail in other cases. They say Noreen Niazi had no criminal case registered against her.

After the initial 30-day detention period expired, the women were not released despite no fresh MPO detention order being issued.

Most seriously, the family says Aleema now faces terrorism proceedings and alleges another case is awaiting announcement, part of what it describes as an effort to keep her jailed.

Rubina accuses authorities of using terrorism charges and repeated procedural delays to prevent their release, while questioning why the courts have not brought the detentions to an end.

[Hajra niazi @Hajraniazi3]

My mother, Noreen Niazi, my khalas Aleema Khan & Dr Uzma Khan have completed 30 days of unlawful detention under MPO — and still not released.

Detention was unlawful from day one. Any extension is equally unlawful.

[brief. @brief_pk]

We’re now told Afghan front companies have been looting KP’s mines. That would be in a province that has been through 22 major military operations and more than 14,000 intelligence-based operations since 2002, where soldiers man the checkposts from Bajaur to Waziristan, and where nothing moves without the Army’s say-so.

Somehow the Afghans slipped past all of it. Nobody making this claim has named a single company, and they don’t need to guess, because KP’s mining register is public. Every title in it names its holder, and there is no Afghan company in it. What it shows is the Army, under names that don’t say Army. FWO holds KP’s only working large-scale mine, 30 sq km of copper in North Waziristan, through a company called Degan Exploration Works. It pays the province 10% of the profits (some argue its actually 5%).

The Army Welfare Trust has held limestone and shale leases in Nowshera since the early 1990s. Its Askari Cement held more Nowshera titles before it was folded into Fauji Cement, a Fauji Foundation company, in 2021.

The army-run NLC applied for a lease in Swabi last month. The elite aligned civilians took their cut too. In 2024 the provincial titles committee approved a consortium with a firm called Sky Link Communication for 51 sq km of metals and stone, and another with BM General Order Suppliers for 30 sq km of river gold.

In July, KP’s elected assembly ordered a review of every lease in the province. On October 11, Islamabad shut that assembly down and called it a fight against terrorism. Within a week the governor was inviting foreign companies to extract and sell KP’s minerals, and PEMRA had banned TV channels from showing terror attacks. Islamabad’s minerals investment forum opens on November 12.

Terrorism and bad governance are the cover story. Governor’s rule is the theft of KP’s copper, gold, lithium, etc, plain and simple.

🚨🇵🇰 Imran Khan’s sister, Aleem-a-Khan, got her 30-DAY PUBLIC ORDER DETENTION OVER, and the Pakistani government is not letting ANYONE see her

She was held under a colonial-era law for nothing more than speaking out.

Her family was locked out, with lawyers as well, and with no order and no explanation.

Immediate release is the only lawful step left!

If we count the cases that attempted to leave the country but failed, the number would be astonishingly high.
