Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan. AFP FILE PHOTOISLAMABAD: Imran Khan was dismissed Sunday as Pakistan's prime minister after losing a no-confidence vote in parliament following weeks of political turmoil. No prime minister has ever served a full term in Pakistan, but Khan is the first to lose office this way. "History will expose all those, who set the stage for this move to topple the government," he said, to chants of "vote, vote" from the opposition. Local media quoted an election commission official as saying it would take them at least seven months to prepare for a national vote.
