"Imran Khan Sentenced to 10 Years in Prison for State Secrets Revelation"

Pakistan's former prime minister Imran Khan has been sentenced to 10 years in prison for exposing official secrets, just days before the country's general elections. His party claims the verdict was rushed and could be overturned, and accuses the Pakistani establishment of deliberately timing the sentencing to coincide with the election campaign. With Khan barred from running for public office, former prime minister Nawaz Sharif is seen as the most likely next leader, despite Khan's continued popularity. The ruling party faces restrictions during its campaign, and the sentence could potentially fuel tensions ahead of the upcoming election.
