Pak protest leaders assure court to follow Constitution

Cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan and cleric Tahirul Qadri, who are leading two anti-government protests in Pakistan, today assured the Supreme Court that they will remain within the limits of the Constitution during their ongoing agitations.

The two are staging separate sit-ins in front of the parliament to dislodge Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, who has refused to quit.

A five-judge larger bench, headed by Chief Justice Nasirul Mulk, is hearing petition against their protest and had ordered them yesterday to file their response.
