Former Pakistani Prime Minister: "My would-be killers are still in government."

Imran Khan has survived two attempts on his life in the last week, and blames Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah, and Major General Faisal Naseer for plotting his assassination. Sharif denies any involvement, and has accused Khan of spreading "false and cheap conspiracies." Khan has been charged with 143 criminal offenses, and his supporters rioted outside the Islamabad courthouse last Saturday. Khan views these charges as politically-motivated, and insists Pakistan's election commission had no legal grounds to ban him. He has won 29 out of 37 by-elections since he was removed from power, and a Gallup poll put his approval rating at 61%. Provincial elections in the PTI strongholds of Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa were pushed back until October due to Sharif's government withholding election-related funding. Khan is taking precautions and now gives speeches from behind bulletproof glass, referring to the Pakistani authorities as the ones he is in the greatest danger from.
