Imran’s arrest: Army declares May 9 a ‘black chapter’

The Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on Wednesday that May 9 will be remembered as a “black chapter”, referring to the protests “targeting army property and installations” that took place after PTI Chairman Imran Khan’s arrest a day earlier.

“We will not allow anyone to take the law into their hands,” it said in a statement.

The military media wing stated that Imran Khan was arrested from the Islamabad High Court “in line with the NAB statement and law”.

“Immediately after this arrest, attacks were perpetrated on the army’s properties and installations while slogans anti-army slogans were raised.”
