Imran Khan: Pakistan ex-PM charged under terrorism act

Foreign Affairs Correspondent

Police in Pakistan have filed terrorism charges against the former Prime Minister Imran Khan – after he gave a speech at the weekend vowing to sue police officers and a female judge, and claiming that a close aide had been tortured after his arrest.

Mr Khan could face several years in prison under the charges, and is likely to appear in front of an anti terrorism court later this week.
