Dozens more were injured, including journalists who were attacked by Khan\u2019s supporters, who also beat a videographer covering the protests for The Associated Press news agency and broke his camera.<\/p>\n<p>Shortly after midnight, Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi threatened security forces would respond with live fire if protesters fired weapons at them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf they again fire bullets, the bullet will be responded with the bullet,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Khan <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/news\/2024\/10\/24\/will-pakistans-imran-khan-get-out-of-jail-after-his-wifes-release\">has been in jail<\/a> for more than a year and faces more than 150 criminal cases. His Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party says the cases are politically motivated.<\/p>\n<p>Authorities say only the judiciary can order the release of Khan, who was ousted in 2022 through a no-confidence vote in parliament. He has been imprisoned since his first conviction in a corruption case in August 2023 and sentenced in several other cases.<\/p>\n<p>Khan\u2019s supporters were about 10km (6.2 miles) from their destination, D-Chowk, a public square near key government buildings. Naqvi said the PTI rejected a government offer to rally on the outskirts of Islamabad.<\/p>\n<p>In a bid to foil the protest, police have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/news\/2024\/11\/25\/pakistan-detains-over-4000-imran-khan-supporters-before-islamabad-rally\">arrested\u00a0more than 4,000<\/a> supporters of Khan since Friday and suspended mobile and internet services in some parts of the country. On Thursday, a court prohibited rallies in the capital and Naqvi said anyone violating the ban would be arrested.<\/p>\n<p>Travelling between Islamabad and other cities has become nearly impossible because of shipping containers blocking the roads. All educational institutions remain closed.<\/p>\n<p>The PTI relies heavily on social media to demand Khan\u2019s release and uses messaging platforms such as WhatsApp to share information, including details of events.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/gallery\/2024\/11\/26\/imran-khan-supporters-breach-lockdown-in-pakistans-islamabad\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Supporters seeking the release of Pakistan\u2019s jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan broke through a ring of shipping containers locking down the capital, Islamabad, battled police, and ignored a government &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/?p=130325\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-130325","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-world","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/130325","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=130325"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/130325\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=130325"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=130325"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hotvideos24.online\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=130325"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
