Pakistan considering banning Imran Khan's party: Minister May 23, 2023 at 11:18PM

Pakistan is considering banning former prime minister Imran Khan's party for attacking the state, the defence minister said on Wednesday, a decision likely to enrage his supporters and exacerbate his confrontation with the military establishment. Defence minister Khawaja Asif told reporters that Khan's Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party had attacked the "very basis of state", which could not be tolerated.
