In Pakistan, the political tensions and the protests against the government have grown dramatically. It is the PTI who organize the big rallies and PTI's main support comes from KPK. The ongoing protests have caused Pashtun serious social and economic harm. Many Pashtuns in Pakistan think that there are more serious concerns than the Panama papers and that solving the problems in their own country should be a global priority. We have interviewed a Pashtun journalist Islam Gul Afridi who is based in KPK to get his view on this matter. Please listen to his full interview here.
