Jailed Imran Khan's Messages Continue to Terrify Pakistan Army & Asim Munir

  • Imran Khan, despite incarceration, remains a significant threat to the Pakistan Army, which frequently denounces him publicly.
  • Pakistan faces internal turmoil, including increased militant attacks in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) and government consideration of governor's rule in the PTI-led province.
  • Khan's immense popularity, even while jailed, leads to fears of mass protests and prevents the army from taking extreme measures against him.
  • Army Chief Asim Munir is depicted as having a personal vendetta against Khan, who refused exile and continues to challenge military authority from prison.
  • The ongoing conflict is framed as a direct battle between Imran Khan and the military leadership, not the civilian government.

Why It Matters: The military's suppression of Imran Khan signals Pakistan's volatile political future.
