The cases range from sedition charges to corruption, from terrorism to money laundering. Hardly a law could be found in the book which Imran Khan is not said to have violated, claims the government. Imran Khan, former Prime Minister of Pakistan, had recently announced the schedule of his public rallies set to take place throughout Punjab.

Police Crackdown at Zaman Park

The image you see is not by any means an edit of the EX-PM of Pakistan selling tin cans. What you see are just a few of the many Tear Gas Shells that were fired outside his home and at it directly. Ground Situation: Since the afternoon of Tuesday 14th March, the well-known area of Lahore, Zaman Park, was facing a police crackdown and resilience from PTI workers. We have never before seen such a sight in Pakistan where an EX-PM's residence was attacked in such a way. As the police called in reinforcements and began marching towards Zaman Park to arrest Imran Khan, his supporters/workers held their ground to protect him. These people have been living outside Khan's residence for weeks (some for even months) just for the sake of protecting their beloved leader. While Khan would constantly suggest a surrender to the police to avoid conflict and bloodshed, his supporters would simply not let him do so. As the sun ascended the sky, rising like a phoenix from its ashes, hope was renew...

Humanity Washed Ashore?

A beautiful beach, wind blowing, cool sea breeze. A man stood near the shore taking in the beautiful scene. Gazing out in the ocean, he sighed and started to walk along the shore. The clear blue sky above him was mesmerizing. Nothing seemed to be more beautiful or soothing than this moment right here. Suddenly, he saw something on the beach. The waves kept crashing against the tiny thing. When the man came close enough, he saw it was a little boy, about 3-4 years old. Laying face first on the sand, the boy wore a red shirt and blue shorts. The man rushed to the child's side, flipping him over, he checked him for a pulse or any sign of life. But it was too late, the boy had been dead for a while. There was no telling how long he had been there. The man was devastated at this sight. He prayed for the little boy as he caressed his hair. What more could he do for him? He tried calling the local ambulance and then sat there. He kept staring at the more empty vessel before him. Who could...
