Pakistan court rules blocking vote to oust PM Imran Khan illegal
Pakistan’s Supreme Court says Prime Minister Imran Khan’s move to dissolve parliament was illegal and ordered the house be restored. The decision on Thursday came after four days of hearings by the top court. Khan will now face a no-confidence vote by lawmakers that he had tried to sidestep. The assembly will likely convene to vote on Saturday. A major political crisis was triggered when Khan and his allies thwarted the motion by opposition lawmakers that seemed certain to unseat him. The move “is declared to be contrary to the constitution and of no legal effect and is set aside”, the court ruled. #Pakistan
