Pakistan president takes over control of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province

Pakistan’s president, Asif Ali Zardari, put Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province under emergency and governor’s rule Sunday, meaning the national government takes over from the PTI party government in place since 2013. Islamabad says it is needed to fight terrorism, blaming local leaders for inaction. PTI says it will challenge the takeover in court Tuesday.
