Tension in Pakistan: Imran Khan's Party Complains of Restrictions Amid Health Concerns

Wajahat's claim comes at a time when the situation in Pakistan is very tense. On Tuesday, Imran Khan's family and allies of his party, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), complained that they were not being allowed to meet the former prime minister despite concerns about his health. Concerns over Khan's health are now causing a major confrontation. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister and PTI leader Sohail Afridi claimed that more than two million people are ready to take to the streets, and warned that it may be difficult to handle the anger brewing among Pakistan's youth, especially because of the "hybrid regime" headed by CDF Field Marshal Asim Munir. On September 27, PTI reported that Imran Khan's family and aides complained that they were not being allowed to meet him despite concerns about the former prime minister's health.
