The legal move has attracted attention on social media, but attempts to reach Khawaja for details were unsuccessful. The court’s response and further developments are awaited.
The petition follows a recent incident in which US Marines reportedly fired at protesters during an attack on the US consulate in Karachi over the weekend. Eleven people were killed when demonstrators breached the outer perimeter of the consulate, amid rising unrest after the assassination of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
