Imran Khan, the former Prime Minister of Pakistan, currently jailed, has been probed by the government for his social media posts. The inquiries are centered on his account's recurring criticisms of Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir and related state institutions.

This week, officers from the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency visited Rawalpindi's high-security Adiala Jail to question Khan about his purportedly 'anti-state' online posts. Although approached by the investigative team, Khan reportedly declined to provide insights into his social media operations, raising questions about his account's management.

In a defiant response posted on X, Khan addressed allegations tied to his criticism of past military actions and state policy as psychological pressure. Highlighting his tenure's achievements, especially in Afghan relations, Khan defended his statements. He argues for his right to discuss domestic issues freely, emphasizing that peace solutions in the region necessitate inclusive dialogue.
