Police file terrorism charges against Pakistan’s former Prime Minister Imran Khan
PBS NewsHourAUG 2022
Khan - who has repeatedly spread dangerous conspiracy theories - finally has to face the law. Through his seditious words, he's responsible for instigating extremism, and the government cannot sit idle while he continues to incite rebellion and harm the country.
The so-called "threat" and "spreading of hate" for which Khan is being charged is the threat to sue officials and the police. Khan has clearly improved in popularity after he was removed from office in April, and the charges against him risk pushing an already divided country into chaos.
