Pakistan’s former prime minister Imran Khan called off reconciliatory talks with the government yesterday, a week after a court handed him a 14-year jail term on graft charges, his party’s chairman said.
Aimed at cooling political instability in the South Asian nation, the talks had started late last year ahead of the judgment in the land corruption case against the 72-year-old politician.
