PTI supporters also organized their own peaceful protests throughout the country. However, the protests turned violent when law enforcement officials intervened with force in an effort to breakup the protestors. This comes after what has been a week of PTI leaders being arrested for criticizing certain individuals.<\/p>\n<p>Last month, many celebrities were spotted at PTI sit-ins after Khan&#8217;s ouster. Some of them could also be seen protesting yesterday, braving through tear gas and gunfire. Those who could not be present in-person were vocal on social media.<\/p>\n<p>Actress Samina Peerzada posted several times on Twitter in support of PTI leadership and workers.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"rtl\" lang=\"ur\">\u062d\u0642\u06cc\u0642\u06cc \u0622\u0632\u0627\u062f\u06cc \u062a\u062d\u0631\u06cc\u06a9 \u0632\u0646\u062f\u06c1 \u0628\u0627\u062f<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Samina Peerzada (@SaminaSays) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SaminaSays\/status\/1529653556621475840?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">May 26, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Actress Maryam Nafees attended the protest in Islamabad despite tear gas shelling.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">\u2022 It\u2019s 4:30 in the morning and they\u2019re still continuing to throw horrid skin and eye burning tear gas to disperse protestors.
