#Pakistan’s hastily adopted constitutional amendments seriously undermine judicial independence & raise grave concerns about military accountability & respect for the rule of law. These changes risk subjecting the judiciary to political interference & executive control. ➡️ ohchr.org/en/press-relea…
🚨🇵🇰 “WHERE IS IMRAN KHAN?” - THE QUESTION THAT JUST EXPLODED ACROSS PAKISTAN Imran Khan’s party is sounding the alarm: the former PM hasn’t been seen by family or lawyers in 23 days, no explanations, no medical checks, nothing. For a 73-year-old behind bars on charges he says were engineered by the military, that silence is loud. PTI says he’s being held in “illegal isolation.” Prison officials insist he’s “in good health.” Some media whisper he might be moved to a high-security facility to make access even harder. Meanwhile, WHEREISIMRANKHAN is trending like a national panic button - because Pakistan’s political memory is long, and enforced disappearances are not hypothetical. Let’s be real: Khan’s downfall was never just about corruption cases. It was about crossing the military, the same institution that un-makes prime ministers as easily as it installs them. His 2023 arrest triggered the biggest anti-army protests in years - and the establishment hasn’t forgotten. If the government doesn’t produce him publicly soon, this goes from a health scare to a legitimacy crisis. PTI supporters are already mobilizing, the streets are watching, and the military hates uncertainty.Keep your eyes on Rawalpindi - that’s where the real answers usually come from.

PAKPAC appreciate @RepHuizenga from Michigan and @sydneykamlager @juliejohnsonTX @RepMoolenaar @JulianCastro @rep_jackson for co sponsoring Pakistan freedom act at the request of @PAKPAC . The fascist regime in Pakistan cannot go unchecked. The reckoning day is near. This is a strong bill which complements HR 901. After days of deliberations between PAKPAC executives @UzmaDo @DrTariqUS @SabaShabnam24 and congressional offices. @SHABAZGIL @NaziaIHussain @mmalikx7 @MoeedNj @HamidMirPAK
I am grateful to submit an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act to require the U.S. military to bring up the wrongful imprisonment case of Imran Khan and all political prisoners in ALL of their mil-to-mil interactions with Pakistan. Free Imran Khan! 🇺🇸🇵🇰
And the Pakistan military generals are engaged in transnational repression -- targeting American Pakistani's in the US, including those who are active LCRC volunteers who speak out in opposition to military rule, & arresting their family members in Pakistan. This is outrageous intimidation. We stand for the rule of law, freedom & democracy. @StateDept @TheJusticeDept @PamBondi @marcorubio @fbi
