Pakistan capital locked down to stop Khan rally
Pakistani authorities have placed shipping containers on key roads and highways leading to Islamabad and suspended mobile phone service in the capital in an attempt to prevent supporters of imprisoned former prime minister Imran Khan holding a rally seeking his release.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s government also deployed paramilitary rangers and additional police and shut schools in Islamabad and the nearby city of Rawalpindi after Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party refused to withdraw its call for the protest.
