<p>Imran was booked for allegedly threatening a judge and two police officers at a public meeting in Islamabad and was charged under Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA).

<p>PTI leader&nbsp;Shahbaz Gill has been in detention over sedition charges. Gill has been accused of inciting mutiny in the Pakistan Army. Gill has also been charged by police with possessing an illegal weapon.</p>

<p>Imran however backed his party leader while asserting that Gill was being tortured in custody. "That includes the inspector general, deputy inspector general of police and a magistrate who sent him on physical remand despite knowing he was tortured," Imran said while adding that, "There is no law here and any charges can be brought against anyone."&nbsp;</p>
