Former Prime Minister Imran Khan was arrested in a new case just 2 days ago.
The Shahbaz government is going to ban former Prime Minister Imran Khan’s party Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI). Announcing the ban on Monday, IT Minister Ataullah Tarar in the Shahbaz government said that the government has decided to ban Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf for being involved in anti-national activities. He said that Pakistan and PTI cannot live together.
The government has taken this decision at a time when PTI founder and former Prime Minister Imran Khan has been in jail for a year. 2 days ago, Imran Khan was released in all cases after being acquitted in the Iddat case. But before he could come out of jail, the NAB team arrested him from jail in another case.
Along with Khan, his wife Bushra Bibi was also arrested from the jail. The National Accountability (NAB) team had reached Adiala Jail to arrest him in a new case related to Toshakhana.
Imran has been in Adiala Jail in Rawalpindi for 350 days in 3 different cases. The local court in Islamabad convicted him in another case of Toshakhana on August 5, 2023. After this, he was arrested from his house in Zaman Park, Islamabad and sent to jail. Later he was convicted in 2 more cases. He has been released in all three cases.

Khan has more than 100 cases against him
Khan’s release already did not seem possible. More than 100 cases are registered against him. According to the English newspaper Dawn, if Imran comes out of jail, he will raise the demand for re-election in Pakistan.
Imran’s Tehreek-e-Insaf party could not officially participate in the general elections held this year. In a post on Imran Khan’s X (Twitter) account on July 5, the general elections held on February 8 this year were called fake. In such a situation, the Shahbaz government or the army would not want Khan to be released at any cost.
