Pakistani Authorities Prepare to Arrest YouTubers Amid FIA/NCCIA Notices; Imran Khan’s Sons Plan PTI Protests, Rana Sanaullah Issues Warnings

Pakistani authorities are intensifying their crackdown on prominent YouTubers, with the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) and the National Counter Terrorism Authority (NCCIA) issuing notices and preparing for imminent arrests. This action coincides with the anticipated return of former Prime Minister Imran Khan's sons, who are expected to lead protests on behalf of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party. Political tensions are escalating as PTI's leadership convened a six-hour political committee meeting, followed by a message from the party's founder. Government officials, including Rana Sanaullah, have issued clear warnings that the founder's sons will face arrest if they enter Pakistan and described PTI's planning as ineffective, indicating that any protestors will be detained. Meanwhile, Malik Riaz, the Bahria Town chief, is reportedly facing major legal troubles amid this broader political unrest. The situation highlights ongoing challenges in Pakistan's political landscape, with concerns about dynastic politics and the government's firm stance against PTI's mobilization efforts.
