In a series of Tweets, Imran Khan asked SC judges if article 14 of our Constitution, which refers to “Inviolability of dignity of man” was only applicable to the powerful of the State & for everyone else there is no protection of their basic human dignity?
Article 14 of our Constitution refers to "Inviolability of dignity of man"; so my question to our Honourable SC Judges is whether this provision is only applicable to the powerful of the State & for everyone else there is no protection of their basic human dignity?

Imran Khan said Senator Swati was stripped naked, tortured, humiliated through an illegal video sent to his wife. “For weeks he has sought justice from SC to no avail. So when he reacts in justifiable anger and frustration, he is put in jail and at last count 15 FIRs registered against him across Pakistan.”

Imran Khan said “again, I ask our Honourable judges where is the justice in all this? Is the Article 14 Constitutional provision only to be applied selectively for the high & mighty State functionaries?”
