Pakistani authorities are investigating whether former prime minister Imran Khan violated anti-terror laws and have banned him from speaking live on television, in moves likely to inflame tensions between Khan, who maintains mass popular support, and the coalition government.
According to police documents seen by CNN, police opened an investigation after Khan vowed to "take action" against the head of police and a female magistrate during a speech in Islamabad on Saturday.
"Listen Director Inspector General (of police), we're not going to let you go, we're going to file a case against you. And madam magistrate you should also get ready, we will take action against you," Khan told hundreds of his supporters during a rally held in support of his former chief of staff, Shahbaz Gill, who was arrested earlier this month on sedition charges after he urged soldiers to disobey orders from military leaders.
Hours after President Joe Biden touted its success during his commencement speech at West Point last Saturday, White House staffers learned that the temporary pier the military had just constructed into Gaza was falling apart. Four Army vessels had been beached, two in Gaza and two along the coast of Israel.
