In a video that has been making the rounds on social media, the former prime minister was seen leaving a gate at the Awan-e-Adal (Civil Courts of Lahore) flanked by party members and security officers when bystanders began chanting the insulting phrase in reference to the Toshakhana scandal.
A PTI supporter who was with Khan can also be seen pushing a man in the video for shouting slogans.
Khan has asked the attorneys to take part in his party’s impending long march and given the Lahore Bar a check for Rs50 million. In addition, the PTI leader declared that attorneys would receive health cards and pledged to upgrade a hospital for them.
Khan added that the Punjab Assembly will approve a bill to protect lawyers.
In a unanimous decision relating to the Toshakana reference, the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) disqualified Khan on October 21 and determined that the PTI chairman was no longer a member of the National Assembly.
The judgement said that “criminal procedures will be commenced against the PTI chairman for misdeclaration.”
Imran Khan was found to have produced a fraudulent affidavit and engaged in corrupt behaviour in violation of Article 63(1), according to the ECP (p). According to the aforementioned article, a legislator is temporarily ineligible to be elected or selected as a member of the Majlis-e-Shoora (Parliament) or of a provincial assembly.
