Pakistan Army kidnapped top cop to stifle anti-Imran protest? Face-off decoded

Updated on Jan 09, 2021 02:33 am IST

Pakistan is staring at another possible political crisis with a grouping of major Opposition parties coming out to protest against not just incumbent Prime Minister Imran Khan, but also the Army. This is being seen by many as an unprecedented moment of reckoning for the institution which runs the 'deep state' in the Asian nation. A fresh flash-point in the face-off is the alleged kidnapping of a top police official by Army soldiers to force the arrest of Opposition leader and ex-PM Nawaz Sharif's son-in-law. How will the latest spate of protests pan out in the nation battling multiple problems like a severe economic slowdown, the Covid-19 pandemic, and international pressure to stem terror funding? Hindustan Times' Aditi Prasad discusses the situation with Pakistani journalists Mateen Haider and Ahmer Shaheen.
