00:15While government ministers and PMLN leaders accused Terry Key and Sauf of politicizing

00:20chaos, some observers believe that its aim is to increase pressure on the party.

00:25During a press briefing in Washington, U.S. State Department spokesman Matthew Miller

00:29expressed U.S. concern regarding the ban on Pakistan Terry Key and Sauf, PTI.

00:34He said that we have seen the government's statements regarding the banning of political

00:38parties in Pakistan.

00:39This is the beginning of a complicated political process.

00:42According to the spokesman, certainly, banning a political party is a matter of concern.

00:47The United States has expressed concerns over the Pakistan government's announcement regarding

00:52the banning of Terry Key and Sauf, calling it the beginning of a complex political process.

00:58The Pakistani government has decided to ban former Prime Minister Imran Khan's party,

01:02Terry Key and Sauf, for which a reference will be sent to the Supreme Court.

01:06This announcement was made by Federal Information Minister Atala Terror in a press conference.

01:11While holding a press conference in Washington, Matthew Miller said, of course, banning a

01:16political party is a matter of concern.

01:18We support the peaceful observance of constitutional, democratic principles, including respect for

01:24human rights and freedom of expression.

01:26We support democratic processes and broader principles, including the rule of law and

01:31equal justice under the law, he added.

01:34According to the spokesperson, the U.S. administration will monitor the court decisions, and as this

01:38internal process continues, we will continue to monitor more court decisions.

01:42In response to a question, Matthew Miller said, we have spoken against political violence

01:47in Pakistan as well.

01:48It is about the rule of law, and from this place we have spoken about the democratic

01:52right of the people.

01:53In a press conference on Monday, Federal Minister for Information Atala Terror announced that

01:58the government will file a case of treason against Imran Khan, former President Arafat

02:02al-Bin and former Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly Qasim Suri under Article 6 of the

02:07Constitution.

02:08This decision has come at a time when three days ago the Supreme Court of Pakistan recognized

02:13PTI as a parliamentary party and decided to give reserved seats for women and minorities

02:17to PTI.

02:18The government has filed a review appeal against this decision.

02:22Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi have also been acquitted in the case related to

02:26marriage during Eid, and after that the government has arrested Imran Khan in the NAB Tosha Khanna

02:31case and cases related to May 9th.

02:34The Anti-Terrorism Court of Lahore has accepted the request for physical remand of former

02:38Prime Minister and founder of Pakistan Tariqiyan SAF, PTI, Imran Khan and handed him over to

02:44the police on physical remand for 10 days.

02:47Anti-terrorism court judge Khalid Arshad delivered a safe verdict some time ago.

02:52It should be remembered that Imran Khan appeared in the Anti-Terrorism Court Lahore today through

02:56a WhatsApp video call in connection with the cases of violent protests on May 9th.

03:01Meanwhile, his lawyers objected to Imran Khan not appearing in his personal capacity.

03:06Judge Khalid Arshad asked the public prosecutor that why can't you present Imran Khan in court,

03:12to which he replied that he cannot be produced in the court due to security reasons.

03:17It is written in the supplementary report, the court had reserved judgment on this point

03:21which has now been pronounced.

03:23I did not commit these false allegations.

03:26In my 28-year political career, I have never been involved in violent incidents, Imran

03:31Khan told the court via video link, according to local journalist Wakas Awan.

03:36He added, my house was attacked.

03:38I called for a peaceful protest.

03:40A petition has been filed in the Supreme Court for a judicial inquiry into the May 9th riots.

03:46I have asked the Chief Justice of Pakistan to listen to our plea.

03:50Reminded, Imran Khan added, they say apologize to us.

03:55Instead of apologizing to you, I ask you to apologize, you have done wrong.

04:00According to Ali Arshad, a journalist present in the court, Imran Khan was on a WhatsApp

04:05call on his mobile phone for about two minutes and was arguing to the judge about the events

04:09of May 9th.

04:10Meanwhile, his lawyers objected to Imran Khan not appearing in his personal capacity.

04:15Lawyer Usman Riaz Ghul said that it is not possible that the accused is not present before

04:20the court and the process of his remand begins.

04:22Usman Riaz Ghul and Advocate Azza Siddique presented various old judgments in the court.

04:28Advocate Azza Siddique said that this court does not have this authority.

04:32Even if it does, it would be illegal.

04:34We object that it should first be determined whether such a hearing can be held or not.

04:39Judge Khalid Arshad asked the public prosecutor that, why can't you present Imran Khan in

04:44court?

04:45To which he replied that he cannot be produced in the court due to security reasons.

04:49It is written in the supplementary report.

04:51The court had reserved judgment on this point while Judge Khalid Arshad said that a decision

04:56regarding remand would be taken later.
