Maryam trolls Imran as he keeps count of registered cases

PML-N Senior Vice President Maryam Nawaz has mocked PTI chief Imran Khan after the latter cried foul over another case registered against him and his party workers for obstructing Islamabad police team in implementing court’s order in Toshakhana case.

A day earlier, the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority (PEMRA) imposed a blanket ban on broadcasting live or recorded speeches of the former prime minister on all satellite TV channels. “It has been observed that Mr Imran Khan, Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, in his speeches/statements is continuously... levelling baseless allegations and spreading hate speech through his provocative statements against state institutions and officers which is prejudicial to the maintenance of law and order and is likely to disturb public peace and tranquillity,” read an order issued by the media regulatory authority on Sunday.
