when the security forces mostly from the punjab province because thousands of police have been brought from the punjab province tried to stop the protesters. after that the people were asked to regroup. the people broke the fences surrounding the parliament house and this morning have pitched their tents out there. the women and children are right in front of parliament. scuffles are continuing although they started on saturday night and there is no end in sight. there are big question marks being asked as to who is in charge, who is running the government, the interior minister looked very upbeat last night saying that the protesters would be dealt with. but they are nowhere near controlling the situation. and the situation very dire indeed. >> and who precisely are the frosters? are they sport he was inning ran kahn and the anti-government cleric or are they not every day people, i mean, are they just people from all walks of life in pakistan? >> reporter: well, one thing that has to be understood very carefully is the fact that imran kahn's party is one of the largest parties in the

chief minister of the punjab for the killing of supporters. also importantly, imran said the final march is sunday, today, and if necessary his supporters would get into the red zone. that is the diplomatic enclave, the parliament, the senate, an important area. and what the government is saying is the red zone is the red line. in the evening the prime minister will meet his cabinet members, the defence minister, the interior minister, to talk out a program on how to deal with this crisis. >> i was going to ask you more about where this is leaving nawaz sharif, and if he's made any overtures to put an end to or look into the allegations. he recommended - the government has written to the countries, the supreme court, to formulate a panel of judges, to probe into allegations of corruption, but imran khan on the other hand says the judiciary it highly politicized and doesn't see justice there. the other important thing is prime minister nawaz sharif overreacted, bringing in tens of thousands of security forces, personnel, from the punjab, cordoned off large sections of the city. perh

plus and pulling out of the provincial assembly of the punjab where his party has 30 seats and two seats in the province, however his party has not decided whether they'll give up the provincial government where the pti is in the majority. he is saying that they had knocked on every door, going through the country's scores as well, but there was no justice. he wanted a system which would be transparent and would guarantee free and fair elections. so indeed a significant move by khan and not one that would go well for pakistan's democracy. >> in england 35 immigrants found in a container on saturday have been identified as sikhs from afghanistan. one man died making the journey. most of the refugees including 13 children required treatment in hospital. many sikhs are desperate to leave afghanistan. jennifer glasse reports now from kabul. >> you these children are continuing three centuries of tradition in afghanistan, but they could be the last generation of sikhs in this country. it was once a vibrant community. 25 years ago there were 200,000 sikh families here in every province o

be having difficulties as well. it must be remembered 40,000 were dealing in from the punjab province. they are dealing with a few thousands protesters, but despite best attempts, they have not been able to control the protesters. they are in front of parliament. they were a distance, and an emergency situation in the hospitals as hundreds of people who have been injured are brought in, and just a little while ago one. ministers of the government, when in that area, saw the police attacking media. he tried to stop them and almost came under attack himself. he said he was embarrassed by the performance of the police, and we have been told that the prime minister is now on the way to islamabad. he had left the stay before the marchers decided to move to parliament house, prime minister house, i stand corrected. that is when the security forces opened fire. after that the protesters regrouped and are camped in front of the gate of parliament, the military process protecting the compound. they have been making peace, not entering the building. the next few hours will be crucial i

not happened, however it has been scuffle with the police in many years of the punjab. the police of the punjab may have overreacting causing huge problems. i've spoken to someone who says that the situation in gradually coming back to normal even though they continue to insist that he will hold rallies in that city. >> why is he coming? what does he want to achieve, this cleric? >> reporter: first of all there is a grand swell of anti-government feeling. the feeling that the government has failed. it's not just qadri alone. a former cricketing hero is threatening to march on islamabad on the 14th of august, which is less than five days. and if they join hands now interesting to let you know that islamabad is also being seen right now a little while ago driving into the city i could see containers being put on the main highways, and there is no fuel available, so it's not just the city, but we're going to see more here in the next few days. >> kamal hyder reporting from islamabad. thank you, kamal. >> the court ordered the muslim brotherhood assets to be liquiditied. it has sent s

and the tragedy is some i must say this that it was the government of punjab. there was not a single imam the day that he was killed he was ready to stand and lead the prayers for her. including the officially paid imam who had been fired. the imam was still the official imam so there's that fear and that's why it's important but your point is well taken. in case of sharif raising the salaries is only one part of the problem. the real issue is your transformation as an institution in terms terms of current six and investment in new technologies in terms of many modern states there are these cameras on the highways and other places because you can -- is not meant to stop terrorism. the modern policing concepts are not particularly focused on stopping terrorism. they are focused on investigating terrorist might happens. pakistan has not invested in that in any case. that is a choice pakistan has to make and with respect from my friend from pakistan air force, don't take it personally. pakistan wants modern police stations. for the price of one f-16 you can build 30 new stations. it's n

, his brother, who is the chief minister of punjab. that coming at a time when they were about to speak to supporters who are staging a sit-in. he told the supporters that this was the first victory. he said now that the prime minister as well as the chief minister should be arrested immediately. they should not be allowed to leave the country. he told his supporters that none of them would move out of islamabad until the prime minister tendered his resignation. they showed the people who were killed on the 14th of june in police action when they tried to dismantle some barricades outside of a residence. so he definitely on the defensive asking for nothing hotter of the resignation as well as the arrest of the prime minister. in the middle east they are about to speak in the next hour or so, and he will be coming up with a demand that the prime minister must step aside. >> that, indeed, all ramps up the pressure, doesn't it, kamal, on sharif. can he survive it? >> well, that's the real question here. the pressure is growing. these two parties are now sitting in islamabad the capit

include karachi, punjab and the whole area. >> indeed, the capital area. the fact that they called an army, which i have an issue with. so long as civilians will continue to cut on a military to discipline jobs, the military will keep on thinking that they can someday come up and clean it. whenever -- whenever they have tried, they have made a mess of pakistan. civilians have to start investing and civilian institutions. military should not of been called into islamabad. i say this with all humility, but something which i will also check, but because it is an important point, about what he mentioned about the future of the hakkani group. to the best of my knowledge, it comes from graduates of the hakkani group. they have different tribes. one is distinct, but all the other groups look for a similar. that is one point. i will also check. not to the best of my knowledge. >> the gentleman in the blue shirt. >> i really appreciate -- i feel like we have learned a lot about the who and what has been going on. i wanted to get at the underlying why. in your opinion, to the militants have any legi
