In 2018 I excitedly posted a thread called New Pakistan. I eagerly anticipated the emergence of a different Pakistan, as did millions of Pakistani's home and abroad. Our dream has turned into a nightmare.
In April 2022 Imran Khan was removed from power in a controversial vote of no confidence. At the time I and many like me who supported Imran Khan thought this was a new low - since then the country has sunk further and further. Pakistan is virtually bankrupt, it's a matter of weeks before there is no money to pay wages to civil servants. 70% of the population lives in provinces where there is no elected government, the constitution and supreme court are routinely ignored.
In this thread I shall be detailing the facist actions of the military of Pakistan who are now defacto in control of the country.
9th April 2022 - Vote of No confidence against Imran Khan. Prior to this vote Imran Khan had disolved the assemblies and announced new elections, but the Supreme court forced him to re-establish them and face the vote of no confidence. Oppositions MNA's were released from prison and returned from exile to attend the vote. Note the MP who was released from prison was later re-imprisoned by the military. The MP who returned from exile did so after the family of the journalist he murdered accepted blood money and agreed to his prison sentence being quashed. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/4/9/pakistan-prime-minister-imran-khan-no-confidence-vote
