  "account": "Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Gohar Ali Khan has called for political dialogue to address the country's political crisis, after his party denounced what it described as political victimisation of its leadership and the family of PTI founder Imran Khan. Gohar lamented the arrest of four members of Imran Khan's family and eight National Assembly members, as well as the disappearance of some provincial ministers. He urged all stakeholders to engage in dialogue to resolve disputes, and warned that the federal government's actions could set a dangerous precedent for the country's democratic system. The PTI also condemned raids on the residences of two provincial ministers and the arrest of a party-backed MNA from South Waziristan, calling the incidents a grave assault on democratic traditions and the rule of law. Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Sohail Afridi vowed to continue peaceful protests as long as the constitutional provision permitting them remains in place.",
