PTI Targets Pakistan Army Chief, Issues 24-Hour Ultimatum to Government

Imran Khan's Detention and PTI's Demands

• ⚠️ Imran Khan's son alleges he is in a "death cell" under absolute blackout, raising concerns about his accessibility.
• ⏰ The PTI has issued a 24-hour ultimatum to the government, demanding family access to Imran Khan.
• 💬 Imran Khan's sister has also conveyed a message to his ill-wishers.
• ✊ Supporters, led by the Kabar Paktwa chief minister, staged a sit-in protest outside Adyala prison after being denied meeting access.

Blaming the Military Chief

• 🎯 The PTI has explicitly warned that General Munir will be directly responsible if anything happens to Imran Khan in prison.
• 🗣️ The party claims the nation knows General Munir is behind the "oppression and fascism" against Imran Khan and his family.
• 📜 A social media poster from July 16th court proceedings shows Imran Khan stating General Munir would be responsible for any harm.

General Munir's Enhanced Authority

• 🚀 General Munir now holds significant power as the first Chief of Defense Forces, a role created by the 27th amendment.
• 🛡️ This position places him at the helm of all three services (army, air force, navy) and grants him lifelong immunity and privileges as a field marshal.
• 🔙 This rise is notable given Imran Khan previously removed Munir as DG ISI over alleged corruption proof against Bushra Bibi.

Imran Khan's Legal Battles
