Pakistan Army spokesman Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry sparked massive controversy after winking at journalist Absa Koman during a press briefing. The incident occurred when she questioned him about allegations against imprisoned former PM Imran Khan, including being a "national security threat" and "anti-state." Chaudhry responded by calling Khan a "mental patient," then smiled and winked at the reporter. Social media erupted with criticism, with users calling it proof "democracy is over in Pakistan." Chaudhry also accused Khan of being a "narcissist" orchestrating attacks on military installations and spreading "poison against the army." Khan had previously called Munir "mentally unstable," accusing him of collapsing Pakistan's constitutional rule.
