Amnesty International calls for investigation into deadly protests in Pakistan

Amnesty International has called for an urgent investigation into the deaths and injuries of protesters in Pakistan following violent clashes on November 26 and 27. The protests were organized by the opposition party Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) in Islamabad. The government responded to the protests by shutting down mobile internet services and detaining thousands of PTI supporters. Reports indicate that security forces used tear gas and live ammunition against protesters, leading to at least six reported deaths. Amnesty International highlighted concerns over the lack of transparency and accountability in the government's actions. They urged authorities to release detained protesters and investigate the use of force by security personnel.
