<p>Imran Khan's supporters gathered in front of his house on Monday to prevent police from taking him into custody on anti-terrorism charges stemming from a televised weekend speech.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Khan alleged that his assistant, who is accused of sedition for allegedly instigating rebellion in the military, was subjected to police torture.</p>

<p>"We will not spare you," Khan said in the speech, in which he named the police chief and the judge involved in the case against his aide. "We will sue you."</p>

<p>As per Reuters, police said in the report, "The purpose of the speech was to spread terror amongst the police and the judiciary and prevent them from doing their duty."&nbsp;</p>

<p>Khan said, "I had called to take legal action against them (police officers and judicial magistrate)," adding the government had nevertheless registered a terrorism case against him.</p>

<p>"All these things show that we don’t have rule of law in Pakistan," he said, adding he has 16 cases against him, in addition to this latest terrorism case.</p>

<p>The demonstrators started to disperse after a court granted Khan three days of pre-arrest bail later in the day, according to Khan's attorney Babar Awan.</p>

<p>Khan served as prime minister from 2018 until April of this year when he was forced to resign as a result of failing to win a vote of confidence in the legislature. He has since been running for new elections.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Visiting German Chancellor Olaf Scholz met Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday to discuss access to alternative energy sources as his nation works to swiftly reduce its dependency on Russian oil and gas.&nbsp;</p>

<p>On the first day of his three-day tour, Scholz stated at a joint news conference in Montreal that Germany is expediting the development of pipelines and LNG ports infrastructure in order to enhance imports and is contacting other countries, such as Canada, to expand output.</p>

<p>He added: "It is indispensable because we want to move away from our dependency on Russian gas supplies," indicating that as Germany transitions to a more renewable energy source, the country would require more liquid natural gas. &nbsp;</p>

<p>Scholz is also interested in potential hydrogen exports from Canada. The two leaders will visit a potential hydrogen manufacturing site in the province of Newfoundland on Tuesday together with a sizable business delegation.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"A&nbsp;reliable supplier of the clean energy that a net-zero (emissions) world requires," claimed Trudeau of Canada. However, he minimised the prospect of direct LNG shipments from Canada to Germany, pointing to the great distance between the gas reserves in Western Canada and the Atlantic ports for export.</p>

<p>He and Scholz also alluded to a significant hydrogen agreement that would be revealed on Tuesday. Trudeau stated, "We're moving forward on a range of investments around hydrogen and look forward to speaking about that more tomorrow."</p>

<p>In order to achieve a net-zero economy, Germany has placed a bet on hydrogen, according to Scholz, who also predicted that Canada will be crucial in the future development of green hydrogen.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The two leaders will also talk about business potential in the extraction of essential minerals and the automotive industries, as well as help for Ukraine, including eventual post-war reconstruction.</p>

<p>The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said that an E. coli outbreak in four states from an unidentified food source is being investigated. Many of the sick people are alleged to have eaten sandwiches at Wendy's Co.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In the week prior to becoming unwell, 22 of the 37 sick were reported to have eaten Wendy's sandwiches with romaine lettuce in Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, and Pennsylvania, the FDA reported on Friday.&nbsp;</p>

<p>However, the nature of the problem and whether the vegetable used in Wendy's sandwiches was sold or served at other establishments have not yet been determined by the investigators.</p>

<p>The burger giant announced that it is removing sandwich lettuce from all of its locations in the area as a safety measure. The four states are home to about 1,100 of the 5,940 Wendy's outlets in the United States.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Dolo-650 mg tablets were most commonly used in treatment&nbsp;of&nbsp;COVID-19 at the height of the coronavirus pandemic in India. When the drug became a meme, it attained its greatest level of popularity.</p>

<p>When the department accused the Dolo-650 manufacturer Bengaluru-based Micro Labs of tax cheating at the beginning of 2022, the lab was put under income tax scrutiny.</p>

<p>And now, in a hearing in the Supreme Court, the Federation of Medical &amp; Sales Representatives Association of India (FMRAI) has accused the manufacturer of giving doctors gifts worth Rs 1000 crores to get them to prescribe Dolo-650 mg as the go-to medication.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Even Chief Justice DY Chandrachud was upset by the accusation. He stated: "This is not music to my ears. I was also asked to have the same when I had Covid. This is a serious issue and matter."</p>

<p><strong>What is Dolo-650 mg?</strong></p>

<p>The trademark name for a fixed-dose combination medication with 650 mg of paracetamol is Dolo 650 mg. It is analgesic and antipyretic, which means it alleviates pain and brings down temperature.</p>

<p>It is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication that is even sold without a prescription. The vast majority of OTC products include paracetamol with 500 mg of salt. Pain and fever were the main COVID-19 symptoms, hence the sale of all fever-relieving medications increased dramatically.</p>

<p><strong>What's behind the popularity?</strong></p>

<p>During the pandemic, sales of all paracetamol brands skyrocketed because it was thought to be safe to treat COVID-19-related fever and pain.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The income from paracetamol sales climbed by 138.42 per cent between the second quarters of 2020 and 2021, according to an Indian Express report citing market research firm AIOCD-AWACS. While companies like GlaxoSmithKline, the manufacturer of Crocin and Calpol, saw sales soar by 53% and 158.9%, respectively, during that time, Dolo-650 sales increased by a remarkable 289.6%.</p>

<p>According to pharmaceutical specialists, this is due to Micro Labs, the company that makes Dolo 650, overmarketing and decreased availability of rival paracetamol products. And now, allegations of corruption.</p>

<p><strong>How did they find a way around price control?</strong></p>

<p>Under the Necessary Commodities Act, some essential pharmaceuticals and their formulations are priced according to the Drugs Price Control Order (DPCO), and no business is allowed to sell drugs for more than that amount. The price of paracetamol was recently established by a National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority order at Rs 2.88 per tablet.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The price of a 500 mg Paracetamol tablet is currently regulated, but not the price of a 650 mg tablet. This is why businesses like Micro Labs could charge more for their medicine. Of course, this is a huge issue, and estimates suggest that the DPCO does not cover about 80% of medications.</p>

<p><strong>Can it cause harm?</strong></p>

<p>According to the doctors we spoke to, an adult's daily intake of paracetamol can range up to 2 grammes. Therefore, consuming 2-3 Dolos every day during fever would not necessarily be harmful. However, excessive paracetamol use has been related to serious liver damage. Dolo-650 is not recommended for people with persistent alcoholism, liver disease, or kidney disease.</p>

<p><strong>What is the Dolo-650 controversy about?</strong></p>

<p>Even though the pharmaceutical company has described this practice as sales promotion, the plea against the company claimed that several "unethical" benefits, including gifts and entertainment, sponsored international travel, hospitality, and other benefits, are provided to doctors for promoting&nbsp;and prescribing the drug.</p>

<p>It was stated that unethical drug promotion can negatively affect doctors' attitudes toward prescribing medications and harm human health through overusing/over-prescribing medications, prescribing medications in higher doses than necessary, prescribing medications for longer periods of time than necessary, prescribing a higher number of medications than necessary, and prescribing an irrational combination of medications.</p>

Dolo-650 mg tablets were most commonly used in treatment of COVID-19 at the height of the coronavirus pandemic in India. When the drug became a meme, it attained its greatest level of popularity. When the department accused the Dolo-650 manufacturer Bengaluru-based Micro Labs of tax cheating at the beginning of 2022, the lab was put under income tax scrutiny. And now, in a hearing in the Supreme Court, the Federation of Medical & Sales Representatives Association of India (FMRAI) has accused the manufacturer of giving doctors gifts worth Rs 1000 crores to get them to prescribe Dolo-650 mg as the go-to medication. Even Chief Justice DY Chandrachud was upset by the accusation. He stated: "This is not music to my ears. I was also asked to have the same when I had Covid. This is a serious issue and matter." × What is Dolo-650 mg? The trademark name for a fixed-dose combination medication with 650 mg of paracetamol is Dolo 650 mg. It is analgesic and antipyretic, which means it alleviates pain and brings down temperature. It is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication that is even sold without a prescription. The vast majority of OTC products include paracetamol with 500 mg of salt. Pain and fever were the main COVID-19 symptoms, hence the sale of all fever-relieving medications increased dramatically. What's behind the popularity? During the pandemic, sales of all paracetamol brands skyrocketed because it was thought to be safe to treat COVID-19-related fever and pain. The income from paracetamol sales climbed by 138.42 per cent between the second quarters of 2020 and 2021, according to an Indian Express report citing market research firm AIOCD-AWACS. While companies like GlaxoSmithKline, the manufacturer of Crocin and Calpol, saw sales soar by 53% and 158.9%, respectively, during that time, Dolo-650 sales increased by a remarkable 289.6%. According to pharmaceutical specialists, this is due to Micro Labs, the company that makes Dolo 650, overmarketing and decreased availability of rival paracetamol products. And now, allegations of corruption. How did they find a way around price control? Under the Necessary Commodities Act, some essential pharmaceuticals and their formulations are priced according to the Drugs Price Control Order (DPCO), and no business is allowed to sell drugs for more than that amount. The price of paracetamol was recently established by a National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority order at Rs 2.88 per tablet. The price of a 500 mg Paracetamol tablet is currently regulated, but not the price of a 650 mg tablet. This is why businesses like Micro Labs could charge more for their medicine. Of course, this is a huge issue, and estimates suggest that the DPCO does not cover about 80% of medications. Can it cause harm? According to the doctors we spoke to, an adult's daily intake of paracetamol can range up to 2 grammes. Therefore, consuming 2-3 Dolos every day during fever would not necessarily be harmful. However, excessive paracetamol use has been related to serious liver damage. Dolo-650 is not recommended for people with persistent alcoholism, liver disease, or kidney disease. What is the Dolo-650 controversy about? Even though the pharmaceutical company has described this practice as sales promotion, the plea against the company claimed that several "unethical" benefits, including gifts and entertainment, sponsored international travel, hospitality, and other benefits, are provided to doctors for promoting and prescribing the drug. It was stated that unethical drug promotion can negatively affect doctors' attitudes toward prescribing medications and harm human health through overusing/over-prescribing medications, prescribing medications in higher doses than necessary, prescribing medications for longer periods of time than necessary, prescribing a higher number of medications than necessary, and prescribing an irrational combination of medications.

<p>An Oklahoma woman is accused of escaping her restraints, picking the assault rifle, and opening fire from the police vehicle after being arrested. The incident that was caught on camera&nbsp;took place nearby Oklahoma City.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Deputies claimed that the lady, 36-year-old Rachel Zion Clay, was just being held because of unpredictable behaviour and would not be jailed. Grady County Undersheriff Gary Boggess told KOKH-TV about the incident: "While in the back seat of a patrol car, she was able to get her wrist free from the handcuffs and the handcuffs were put on properly."</p>

<p>According to Boggess, the woman was able to reach inside the console of the patrol car and take a gun. She discovered the gun switch, unlocked the gun lock, and was able to grab an AR-15 rifle. "There are several switches, one is a gun switch to unlock the gun lock.&nbsp;She succeeded in inserting a bullet into it, setting it ablaze, and firing roughly 10 rounds at our deputies and a civilian." Boggess added.</p>

<p>The woman can be seen holding the gun and firing it through the back window in dashcam footage from the police cruiser. Clay locked herself inside the vehicle and eventually gave herself up after more than three hours. She tested positive for methamphetamine, according to authorities. According to the police, the citizens and the officer both suffered non-life-threatening wounds and have since been discharged from the hospital.</p>

<p>Boggess stated that in an effort to protect his deputies, his administration is currently adopting procedure modifications.

<p>The number of people at risk of starvation in the drought-ravaged Horn of Africa has increased to 22 million, the UN's World Food Programme (WFP) said Friday.</p>

<p>Years of insufficient rainfall across Kenya, Somalia and Ethiopia have caused the worst drought in 40 years and conditions akin to famine in the hardest-hit areas, aid groups say.</p>

<p>An unprecedented four failed rainy seasons have&nbsp;killed millions of livestock, destroyed crops, and forced 1.1 million people from their homes in search of food and water.</p>

<p>"The world needs to act now to protect the most vulnerable communities from the threat of widespread famine in the Horn of Africa," said WFP executive director David Beasley.</p>

<p>"There is still no end in sight to this drought crisis, so we must get the resources needed to save lives and stop people plunging into catastrophic levels of hunger and starvation."</p>

<p>At the start of 2022, WFP warned that 13 million people across the three countries faced starvation, and appealed for donors to open their purses at a time of great need.</p>

<p>But funds were slow in coming, with Russia's invasion of Ukraine among other crises drawing attention from the disaster in the Horn, humanitarian workers said.</p>

<p>Russia's invasion also sent global food and fuel prices soaring, making aid delivery more expensive.</p>

<p>By the middle of the year, when rain failed to appear again in Kenya, Ethiopia and Somalia, the number in extreme need soared to 20 million and warnings of famine grew more urgent.</p>

<p>WFP says by September, at least 22 million people could face starvation.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"This number will continue to climb, and the severity of hunger will deepen if the next rainy season... fails and the most vulnerable people do not receive humanitarian relief," WFP said in a statement.</p>

<p>Needs will remain high into 2023 and famine is now a serious risk, particularly in Somalia&nbsp;where nearly half the population of 15 million is seriously hungry, it added.</p>

<p>WFP said $418 million was needed over the next six months to help the worst-off.</p>

<p>Last month, the United States announced $1.2 billion in emergency food and malnutrition treatment to help avert famine in the Horn of Africa, and urged other nations to do more.</p>

WATCH: Multiple times when world leaders hit the dancefloor, why blame Sanna Marin alone?

<p>At a Canadian zoo, feelings are mixed after one wolf pup that escaped after four days was found safely, but another was discovered dead by a road.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Following a strange break-in that released a group of predators from the well-known zoo, conservation officers and zoo personnel in Canada have been searching for a runaway wolf for the past four days.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The Greater Vancouver Zoo announced in a statement on Friday that Tempest, a one-year-old grey wolf, had been discovered and was "back with her family." The statement claimed that she had been found close to the zoo. However, the news was released a day after the zoo reported that Chia, another runaway wolf, had passed away, most likely after being struck by a car.</p>

<p>The zoo added in a statement, "We are so grateful for this positive outcome for Tempest but are still processing the loss of Chia. We are hoping to eventually reopen on Saturday."</p>

<p>On Tuesday morning, the zoo made the announcement that it will be closed to visitors. After "suspicious" damage to the enclosure's fence, it eventually admitted that a group of grey wolves had fled. The incident, according to the zoo, was presumably the product of "malicious intent."</p>

<p>The 120-acre Fraser Valley zoo, which is located outside of Vancouver, is next to a sizable forested region that houses a navy radio communications complex.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Following two attacks—one on a kid who was bit by a black bear and another on a staff member who was attacked by a jaguar—animal rights activists have recently turned their attention to the zoo.</p>
