Khan was previously nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2019 for his efforts to promote peace in South Asia.

According to The Express Tribune, the Norwegian Nobel Committee receives hundreds of nominations every year and selects the winner through an extensive eight-month process.

The Peace Prize is awarded to individuals who made the greatest contributions in fostering international fraternity, reducing or abolishing standing armies, and advancing peace congresses.

Imran Khan jailed

Imran Khan, who is the founder of Pakistan's main opposition party, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), has been in jail since August 2023.

In January, he was sentenced to 14 years in prison for corruption and misuse of authority.

This marks the fourth major case in which Khan has been convicted.

Earlier, he was convicted for cases related to selling state gifts, leaking state secrets, and an unlawful marriage, which were either overturned or suspended by the courts.

Khan was ousted from power in April 2022 following a no-confidence vote. He has denied all charges, calling them politically motivated.
