Pakistan military vows to try 'violent protesters' who stormed installations
The Inter Services Public Relations says the move follows violent protests that occurred after the arrest and detention of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan in the Al-Qadir Trust case.
Rawalpindi: The Pakistani military's top officials on Monday announced their commitment to prosecute protesters and their collaborators under relevant laws, including the Pakistan Army Act and the Official Secrets Act.
This decision was made during a Special Corps Commanders Conference (CCC) held at the General Headquarters, with Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Asim Munir presiding over the meeting.
According to a statement released by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the move follows violent protests that occurred after the arrest and detention of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan in the Al-Qadir Trust case. Despite being released on bail, Khan maintained that his party workers did not instigate any violence and distanced the PTI from such actions.
The military's decision to hold those responsible for the violent protests accountable demonstrates their commitment to maintaining law and order in the country. It also serves as a reminder to citizens that no one is above the law, and that all must be held accountable for their actions, including those who incite violence.
