Moon of Alabama – May 9, 2023
Today former prime minister of Pakistan Imran Khan was arrested while visiting the Islamabad High Court in an unrelated case. The arrest comes at a critical point for Pakistan’s economy. Behind the scene U.S. and China are wrestling for influence.
Former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan has been arrested as he appeared in a court in the capital, Islamabad, to face corruption allegations, sparking protests across the country.
The arrest on Tuesday is the latest twist in a months-long political crisis and follows several unsuccessful attempts to apprehend the cricketer-turned-politician, including a police raid in March at his residence in the eastern city of Lahore which he had managed to evade.
Last year Imran Khan was ousted from office after a few turncoats in his PTI party decided to vote with the opposition against him. He has alleged that the Pakistani military, and behind it the U.S., were involved in the scheme. Since then he has called for new elections.
Khan continues to be the most popular politician in the country and has a large following. His supporters are now out in the streets to protest against his arrest.
The case that led to this arrest is one of several dubious ones launched against him:
Akbar Nasir Khan, a top police official in Islamabad, told Al Jazeera that Khan was arrested in a case related to the Al-Qadir University Trust. The anti-corruption National Accountability Bureau (NAB) had issued an arrest warrant against Khan on May 1 in relation to the case, he said.
The accountability body issued a statement saying Khan had been arrested “for the crime of corruption”.
“The former prime minister has not given any adequate response to the summoning notices of NAB. His arrest has been made in accordance with the NAB ordinance and the law,” the statement read.
Since his removal from power last year, Khan has been slapped with dozens of charges, all of which he denies and says are politically motivated.
There is video of the unruly arrest by some 100 paramilitary rangers in riot gear.
Khan had recently accused the head of the Pakistan’s military intelligence service ISI of being responsible for two assassination attempts against him:

As the arrest of Trump shows, TPTB have shit on everyone. And it is necessary to have feet of clay to get to the top of the cesspit. Corruption is not an aberration, it would be spotless conduct that would be an aberration.
I’m certain that the vast bulk of British MPs will have an MI5 file on them, and should they “step of the permitted spectrum of discourse”, the plug will be pulled on them and they will return to the common sewer.
It is of course essential that the bulk of the public believe “proper processes” have been used…
…and by the same token, those who are in line with Agenda 2030, death jabs, and the mainstream 9/11 narrative, may continue on no matter what crimes they commit…
If you want to know if he’s corrupt then simply count his sheckels. Does he have billions? If he does, then he’s corrupt. How else do you think he got them?
As “corrupt” is defined by the fascists, I’m amazed they could twist it to fit him. What can he possibly have done that’s “corrupt”? They all ooze corruption out of every orifice, but they aren’t ever “corrupt”.
