Pakistan anti-terrorism court sentences former Gilgit-Baltistan CM to 34 years in prison

Islamabad An anti-terrorism court in Pakistan on Tuesday sentenced former Gilgit-Baltistan chief minister Khalid Khurshid Khan to 34 years in prison for threatening security agencies in the region.

Cases of sedition and terrorism were registered against Khan following a protest in July 2024, during which he was accused of making a threatening speech.

The Anti-Terrorism Court No. 1 of Gilgit-Baltistan said in its ruling that according to the prosecution, Khan had threatened the Gilgit-Baltistan chief secretary, police personnel and intelligence agencies during the protest in Gilgit on July 26, 2024. The former chief minister reportedly said that he would not spare anyone if he returned to power.

The case further alleged that Khan incited violence against sensitive institutions.

After the case was registered, a Joint Investigation Team (JIT) was formed, which found Khan guilty. Khan is currently on the run.

The court said in its verdict that during the proceedings, the prosecution was able to prove the allegations against Khan, which earned him a 34-year prison term and a fine under various sections.

In addition to the lengthy sentence, the court also imposed a fine of Rs 600,000 on the politician and ordered the police to arrest him and carry out his sentence.

The court also ordered the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) to block his computerized national identity card, further complicating his legal situation.

His party, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Gilgit-Baltistan, refused to accept the court's decision and announced that the fight against oppression would continue.

Earlier, Khan became the chief minister of the region during the PTI regime. He had been chief minister from 2020 until his disqualification in July 2023 over a fake diploma case. (PTI)
