UN panel declares former Pak PM Imran Khan's detention arbitrary
A UN panel determined that former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan's detention is arbitrary and violates international law, calling for his immediate release and compensation. The United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention highlighted that Khan's imprisonment lacks legal basis and appears politically motivated to disqualify him from political office. Despite being cleared for release before Pakistan's general elections, Khan remains detained. His party, PTI, celebrated the ruling as proof of his innocence and unlawful imprisonment.
