Supporters of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) held rallies in various parts of the country, protesting against the “foreign conspiracy” they say was behind the no-confidence vote that eventually led to the ouster of Imran Khan.
The protests follows calls made by the former prime minister during an address on the eve of the no-confidence vote, urging the public to hold “peaceful protests on Sunday” against what he called an imported government being installed at the behest of a foreign power that did not agree with his foreign policy.
Reports indicate rallies were held in Karachi, Peshawar, Islamabad, Lahore, Kohat along with several other cities in Pakistan. Video footage was shared by PTI’s official Twitter page throughout the day, with accounts in the UK also sharing glimpses of rallies in London.
