Pakistan court sentences 4 leaders of Imran Khan's party to 10-year jail, former FM Qureshi acquitted

A Pakistan court has handed down 10-year sentences to four senior leaders of Imran Khan's party for their involvement in the 2023 riots, though ex-foreign minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi was acquitted. The convictions stem from attacks on police vehicles during nationwide protests following Khan's arrest. The party vehemently condemned the verdict, alleging a fake case and a systematic campaign against political opponents, vowing to challenge the decision.
