Pakistan imposes emergency rule in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, suspends PTI government

President Asif Ali Zardari imposed emergency and governor's rule in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on Sunday, suspending the PTI government since 2013. Islamabad says federal control is needed to combat terrorism, accusing the province of having 'failed to demonstrate ownership, will and intent to adequately deal with the menace of terrorism.' PTI says it will challenge the takeover in court on Tuesday.
