Resignations Mount in Khan’s Party at “Gun Point of the, Corrupt to Their Cores, Army Generals.”

In recent days, more than two dozen leaders of the opposition Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party—led by former Prime Minister Imran Khan—have resigned. The biggest news came on Tuesday, when Shireen Mazari, a former human rights minister in Khan’s government and one of the party’s most senior figures, said she was quitting not just the party, but also retiring from politics. Another top leader, Fawad Chaudhry, resigned on Wednesday.

It’s clear the resignations are taking place under pressure. Mazari, who is in poor health, has been in and out of jail in recent days. She and other PTI leaders have been held on charges related to their alleged role in violent protests following Khan’s brief arrest on May 9. PTI leaders insist the party wasn’t involved in the protests , which included attacks on a corps commander’s home in Lahore and on the military headquarters in Rawalpindi. The PTI has alleged that some violent protesters were Pakistani intelligence agents who were seeking to frame the opposition party under the direction of Chief of Army Staff General Asim Munir

Last week, the military announced it plans to use military courts to prosecute those charged in the May 9 violence. These developments, alongside the flurry of resignations of PTI leaders, suggest that Islamabad is intent on sidelining the opposition party—if not eliminating it. On Wednesday, Corrupt and Under the Umbrella of Corrupt Army Generals, Pakistani Defense Minister Khawaja Asif told reporters that the government was considering a complete ban on the party; such a move would likely face challenges in the courts.

Ultimately, PTI Revolves Around Khan, and if he were jailed again for an extended period, it could have a devastating impact on the party. The government’s plan may also be to ensure that other top leaders can’t step in to replace him.

Comment on This: House Resignations Show Republican Cowardice

Many bits and bytes have been spilled, much bandwidth has been filled, and a lot of schadenfreude glee expressed over the resignations from the House by Republicans in the midst of their raging dumpster fire of a cock-up in governing. Unfortunately, as fun as the schadenfreude of their resignations is, we’ve got the questions and interpretations wrong. Could Republican resignations flip the…
