Pakistan’s jailed former prime minister Imran Khan has demanded the constitution of a Supreme Court-led judicial commission to probe alleged killings of his party workers by law enforcement officers’ “direct firing” in Islamabad last week.

Khan’s PTI had launched a protest on November 24. His supporters were forcibly dispersed on the night of November 26 when they reached close to D-Chowk in Islamabad’s Red Zone, where most government buildings are located.

In a post on X, Khan said he was informed about how “peaceful protesters were directly shot” and dozens of unarmed citizens who “spoke up for the Constitution and rule of law” were killed.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
