Pakistan seals roads to Islamabad before protests for Imran Khan’s release

Authorities in Pakistan have begun sealing off main roads leading to Islamabad to prevent supporters of jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan from reaching the city. The indefinite closures aim to block planned protests on September 27 by Khan's party, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), demanding his release. Khan has been imprisoned since August 2023, and concerns about his health have intensified the campaign for his release.
