Newly appointed Chief Minister Sohail Afridi appeared before the court on Monday to request protective bail in a case registered against him. His arrival drew a crowd of journalists and supporters, all eager to witness the latest development in the province’s political landscape.
Afridi’s legal team argued that the case is politically motivated, adding that he has consistently cooperated with the authorities. The Chief Minister maintained silence during the hearing but remained calm and composed throughout the proceedings.
Meanwhile, tensions within the party continue to rise. Following the recent disagreements involving Ali Amin Gandapur, a few PTI leaders have also expressed dissatisfaction with Afridi’s administrative choices. According to party insiders, these concerns highlight increasing internal pressure, though efforts are in place to settle the issues through dialogue.
Despite the challenges, Afridi’s supporters remain confident that he will overcome both the legal and political hurdles ahead.
