Imran Khan, ineligible to contest the February 8 elections due to his convictions, including corruption charges, has been barred from holding public office for a decade.

She highlighted Imran Khan's condemnation of the suspension of internet services, which he claimed was an attempt to conceal the true election results. Additionally, Aleema mentioned Khan's worries about the safety of the former Rawalpindi Commissioner.

The announcement came from Barrister Ali Saif, representing PTI, just a day following the party's nomination of Umar Ayub Khan for prime minister and Aslam Iqbal for Punjab's chief ministerial position.

Raoof Hasan, the Central Information Secretary of Imran Khan's Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party, expressed strong dissatisfaction, alleging that Imran’s “mandate has been stolen in the dark of the night”.
