Pakistan's Afridi Restricted in Lahore
Sohail Afridi, the Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in Pakistan, was not allowed to enter certain areas in Lahore or give a speech.
This happened because he announced a protest against the government.
The police blocked roads to stop him.
He also couldn't visit some party leaders in jail.
Afridi challenged the ruling party to hold a rally and said his party could fill a big venue quickly.
He mentioned that three judges allowed him to meet Imran Khan, but the jail superintendent ignored the orders.
Over 1,000 supporters of Imran Khan were arrested to stop the protest.
