Pakistan’s former prime minister Imran Khan has said the stage has been set for his “court martial” after the country’s all-powerful army vowed to try the “masterminds and planners” of May 9 violence in military courts.
His remarks came a day after Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah accused Khan of planning the countrywide violence that erupted after his arrest in a corruption case on May 9.
Talking to reporters after appearing before the Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Thursday in connection with 10 different cases, including two ongoing petitions and eight new bail petitions, the 70-year-old Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief said he knew he would be tried by a military court.
