Imran Khan to Face Military Treason Trial in Pakistan After Gen Faiz Conviction

• Pakistan is preparing to try former PM Imran Khan in military courts for treason and other charges.
• The charges against Khan will be under the Official Secrets Act and other military laws.
• This development follows the conviction of former ISI chief Lt Gen (retd.) Faiz Hameed, whose trial provided evidence against Khan.
• Khan is accused of attempting to destabilize the state, inciting mutiny, and orchestrating attacks on military installations during the May 9, 2023 violence.
• The Supreme Court has allowed civilians involved in the May 9 riots to be tried in military courts, and Khan is already incarcerated from other convictions.

Why It Matters: Imran Khan's potential military trial could reshape Pakistan's political future.
