BBC World Service - Newsday, Pakistan police charge ex-PM under terrorism act

Former prime minister Imran Khan has been charged under anti-terror laws

Police probe comes after Imran Khan accused the police and judiciary of detaining and torturing his close aide

The former prime minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan, has been charged under the anti-terrorism act after he accused police and justice officials of detaining and torturing a party colleague. His lawyers are expected to file for pre-arrest bail.

Russian investigators say the bomb attack that killed Daria Dugina but presumably targeted her father, the far-right ideologue Aleksandr Dugin, was pre-planned and commissioned. Ukraine has dismissed allegations that it was involved in the attack.

And South Korea and the United States have begun their biggest combined military exercises since 2018.
