A summary of today's important and breaking news regarding PTI and the country that the mainstream media of Pakistan will never show you.

Imran Khan's message from prison against the inhumane treatment of Afghan refugees and genocide in Palestine.

Today, 125 days have passed since the illegal imprisonment of Chairman Tehreek-e-Insaf and former Prime Minister Imran Khan. Imran Khan issued two messages from jail yesterday.

On the issue of Afghan refugees, he said,

"The treatment of Afghan refugees is against the religion of Islam, the Book of Allah, the Sunnah of the Holy Prophet, peace be upon him, and our social authority. Migration has a special place in Islam, and Hazrat Musa A.S, Hazrat Ibrahim A.S and the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) passed through the stages of Hijrah. As a nation, we must take care of refugees deprived of their land as a result of wars and disasters with kindness and respect. Afghanistan is our brother Islamic country and neighbor. People of both countries are bound by fraternal relations spanning centuries. Pakistan has served Afghan refugees for 40 years. The effects of years of hospitality are being wasted simply because of poor strategy. 1.5 million refugees are not a burden on a nation of 250 million people. Most of the refugees who came to Pakistan in search of asylum/eviction from their land are underprivileged people. The resentment created by poor strategy will become a part of their psyche, and there is a fear of a permanent rift in the relationship between the two countries. The decision-makers should not treat refugees like a herd of sheep. They should look at the whole matter wisely. And keep in mind their self-respect and find a dignified way to solve the matter".

While condemning Israel's atrocities and war crimes and Palestine genocide, Imran Khan said,

"The land of the Palestinians was occupied first. Then the houses were occupied, and now they are being massacred. There is no example of such atrocities in human history that such serious war crimes were committed to wipe out an entire nation. And the silence of the Western countries on this is distressing. The world, especially the West, must abandon hypocrisy and abide by international laws. And the right to live must be secured for the Palestinians".

Hearing against Imran Khan's disqualification in Lahore High Court.

The disqualification case against Chairman Imran Khan was heard in the Lahore High Court today. Lawyer Barrister Ali Zafar argued, "The election date has been announced. The applicant wants to participate in the election. The notification of disqualification should be suspended till the final decision of the application".

The court sent the matter to the Chief Justice of Lahore High Court to constitute a Larger Bench.

Supreme Court cause list released. The Cipher bail case has not been scheduled.

Lawyers of Chairman Imran Khan said, "It seems that the constitutional responsibility is that Imran Khan should not be allowed to reach election in any way. In next week's cause list of the Supreme Court, Imran Khan's cipher has not been fixed for the bail hearing.

The pursuit of revenge against Imran Khan has surpassed all bounds of shame.

Chairman Imran Khan's lawyer, Naeem Haider Panjutha, informed about the Iddat case today. "The hearing of the Iddat case has been deferred. The lawyer wants to present some documents. Those who have planted and plotted this should be ashamed. They have fallen so much in the lust for power that they are ready to cross all limits. But such tactics do not matter to Imran Khan because the nation knows the truth."

Islamabad High Court's issued an order in the audio leaks case.

Justice Babar Sattar of Islamabad High Court has written in the order to send a copy of Bushra Bibi's petition against the Audio leak to DGISI. The head of the country's highest intelligence agency should conduct an independent investigation using all modern tools to identify those who leaked the audio on social media and submit their report to the Islamabad High Court within ten days.
