The Islamabad High Court has ruled that the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf's planned protest on November 24 is unlawful. The court directed the government to maintain law and order, especially with the Belarusian president visiting that weekend. Mobile services will be suspended in Islamabad on November 24 and 25 to ensure security. The court emphasized that protests must have prior permission, which PTI did not obtain. Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi stated that maintaining order is a priority, especially during high-profile visits. He confirmed that security forces will enforce the court's directives and criticized PTI for not engaging in negotiations.
