Breaking: Pakistan on Edge as Imran Khan Accuses Gen. Munir of Abuse, Isolation and Political Vendetta

Tensions in Pakistan have escalated sharply after former Prime Minister Imran Khan, through his sisters, conveyed explosive allegations about his treatment in jail and renewed his direct attack on Army Chief Gen. Asim Munir. According to Khan’s sisters, who met him recently, the former PM claims he has been kept in complete isolation for weeks, denied communication, and subjected to harsh conditions. Khan reportedly accused Munir of framing false charges against him and targeting both him and his wife for political revenge. These revelations come at a time when Pakistan’s political climate is already on edge. Despite being barred from fielding official candidates in the recent elections, PTI-backed independents won 93 National Assembly seats—more than PML-N and PPP individually—strengthening Khan’s influence even from behind bars. PTI leaders now claim that many political factions previously distancing themselves out of fear are returning to Khan’s side, increasing pressure on the government and the military establishment. Meanwhile, reports of friction between Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Gen. Munir, coupled with delays in key notifications, have further fueled speculation of instability. Discussions of a potential power shift are growing louder as Khan’s allegations spark renewed debate about Pakistan’s democratic and military balance.
