Imran Khan

Pakistan's opposition leader Imran Khan was acquitted by an anti-terrorism court in a case related to the attack on a senior police officer during protests in 2014. Activists of Khan's Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and Pakistan Awami Tehreek Chairman Tahirul Qadri had in 2014 staged a major rally here against alleged rigging in the 2013 election. They were also protesting the Lahore incident in June 2014 in which as many as 14 people were killed and 100 injured in police firing.
