Speaking to a media conference in Islamabad on Tuesday, PTI Chairman Imran Khan asked the government to either form the Judicial Commission by January 18 or they would take to the roads again.

He said they would bring the whole country to a grinding halt if and when they wanted to. Shah Mehmood Qureshi, Jehangir Tareen and other party leaders flanked him.“But we don’t want to do this. The government has time till January 18 to form the Judicial Commission to probe last year’s general election or we will announce our future line of action on January 18,” he warned.

He claimed there were as many as 30,000 bogus votes in NA-122, whereas in Jehangir Tareen’s constituency, 49,000 bogus votes were traced, which spoke volumes about rigging. Imran again said they had proof of counterfeit ballot papers, which were printed and distributed among the PML-N candidates.

About reports of his marriage to a female TV anchorperson, Imran played very carefully and smilingly promised to share the good news during this week.He said being Sunnat-e-Rasool it was not a crime towed and added one could marry if and when he wished and it was not like cheating on one’s wife.

The PTI chief acknowledged that divorce was already quite painful to his children and he never wanted to hurt them further by marrying again. He continued now that he had met his sons, he would share the good news within a week.

He said, “Marriage is not a crime and I don’t believe in hiding it. I will share good news with the nation within this week when I am in Pakistan,” he said.He confirmed that he had married for the second time — to former BBC presenter Reham Khan.

The News has learnt from a source close to Imran Khan and Reham Khan that they don’t plan to hold a grand wedding ceremony and the public part of their wedding will only be a “formality”. But a family source has told The News that the two tied the knot several weeks ago and any ‘public display of a Nikah’ will be for the public consumption only, aimed at controlling the ‘fallout’.

“Khan Sahib plans to announce his Nikah plan and date of the Nikah at a pro-PTI private television show,” said the source requesting anonymity, but confirming that themarriage decisions of Imran Khan had rocked the party and Imran Khan’s family in Pakistan and London.

On Monday night when Imran Khan reached the Heathrow Airport to board the PIA flight to Islamabad, Geo News was the first to ask Imran Khan directly if he was going to make a “major announcement” in Pakistan about his wedding following a meeting with the core committee, Imran Khan initially hesitated but then, following another question, spoke out for the first time stating that “marriage is not a crime, tell me please if it’s a crime?”.

Imran Khan was surprised that there was so much interest shown in his marriage but smiled broadly when congratulated on his marriage by this correspondent telling him that interest in his marriage was the result of his current level of popularity in Pakistan.

Imran Khan’s sister reacted furiously to the news of the marriage stating she was taken aback and shocked and that she doesn’t want to meet Reham Khan. But Imran Khan told a press conference in Islamabad that marriage was the Sunnah of the Prophet (PBUH) and it was his right to marry anyone of his choice.

“A person can marry whenever he/she wants. I didn’t think of my marriage for 10 years after my divorce because my children were young. I do not ever think of hurting my children’s feelings,” Imran Khan said in reference to his visit to London over the weekend where he talked to his sons Suleman Isa Khan and Qasim Khan and attempted to explain to them about his marriage to Reham Khan.

Earlier, Imran Khan had said that rumours of his marriage were “greatly exaggerated” and Aleema Khan, his sister, said the family challenged him “a few days ago” over the news and he denied it.

When contacted by Daily Mail that her brother had revealed he had actually married, Aleema Khan said: “Really? Really? Let’s see if he announces it officially. I am taken aback. This is a real challenge for him. We haven’t met her and I don’t know that we want to meet her.

“It is his decision, he is a grown up. It is more important how the children feel. I suppose in any situation like this the children will not feel good about it. They do look up to their father.” She hoped Reham Khan “will be good for Pakistan and our brother”.

Jemima Khan, ex-wife of Imran Khan, hoped the former cricket hero will be happy in his new phase of life and wished him well. But Jemima Khan’s tweets suggested that all was not well between Imran Khan and his sons and Jemima herself when she profusely thanked thePakistanis for their affection and support but didn’t thank Imran Khan. Sources say Jemima and her sons are upset with Imran Khan for keeping his secret marriage a ‘secret’ from them.

For same-sex couples in Central Florida, the opportunity to get married in Florida seemed like an impossible dream with the passage of a state constitutional amendment that banned gay marriage and civil unions in 2008.

Now, with a federal court ruling overturning that amendment, couples are planning to exchange vows starting Jan. 6.

Reno Deschaine and Gary Jilek

Reno Deschaine and Gary Jilek don't believe in wasting time. As soon as a judge opened the way for same-sex marriage in Florida, they wanted to be married.

Behind their sense of urgency has been the doubt fueled by Florida's prolonged legal battle over the issue.

Jilek even urged his family in Wisconsin, where gay marriage is legal, to hold off plans to attend their wedding ceremony at Orlando City Hall on Jan. 6.

"It's frustrating because my family wants to make plans, and I'm telling them, 'Don't schedule anything for the sixth because I can't tell you that it's actually going to happen,'" said Jilek, 47, a business analyst.

But once they are married, the couple plan to host a reception at a later date for their friends and family at their high-rise condo in downtown Orlando.

"We'll have it as a celebration of our marriage, but also to celebrate our family and friends who have stuck by us and supported us this whole time," said Deschaine, a global-operations director for a Maitland company who has been with Jilek for 18 years.

Deschaine, 43, and Jilek met in Milwaukee and moved to Orlando together. They believe they'll be participating in a historic moment for equal rights by being wed on the first day that gay marriage is legal in Florida.

"It's about equality and no longer being made to feel like a second-class citizen," Deschaine said. "At the end of the day, everyone should have the same protections and guarantees from the government and the Constitution."

Tammie Kaufman and Kimberly Jackson

They've been partners for nearly 10 years, and Tammie Kaufman figured that was how it would always be: an unmarried couple for the rest of their lives.

"I was saying we'd be in our walkers before it [same-sex marriage] happened in Florida," Kaufman said.

Now they are planning their wedding: a small ceremony in the home of their best friends.

"I didn't think it would come so quickly," said Kaufman, 45, an associate professor at the University of Central Florida.

They've set the date for Jan. 17 when a friend from Virginia comes to town. They are not in a hurry to get married or afraid the window of opportunity might close as quickly as it opened. Their relationship, after a decade, is stable and secure.

Being married means Jackson, 44, who has Type 1 diabetes and multiple sclerosis, would now be on Kaufman's health insurance.

"It's for security," Kaufman said. "There are so many rights you get by being married."

But even more than that, it would give their relationship a legal status that was never possible before as registered domestic partners.

"You can say I've been together with someone for 10 years," Kaufman said, "but when you say you're married, it's saying you are really in it for keeps."

Besides that, Jackson said, if it's now legal for same-sex couples to get married in the state of Florida, why wouldn't they get married?

"Getting married to me means I get to be with her for a long time in the eyes of the law," said Jackson, "It's saying it's OK for us to be together and so, damn it, we're going to be together."

Thomas Lawson and Michael Scott

Thomas Lawson and Michael Scott have big wedding plans: 150 guests, a four-tiered wedding cake, a DJ and dancing, filet mignon and a candy buffet coordinated to match the colors of the grooms' wedding tuxedos. They've reserved two ballrooms at the Hyatt Regency Orlando and hired a wedding planner, John Michael Weddings, who is billing the event as the first gay marriage with full reception in Orlando.

Friends and relatives are flying in from all over the country.

It's an all-out, full-blown wedding for two guys who met a year and a half ago and became engaged in October. And it's happening faster than they expected.

"We thought we had a year to plan the wedding," said Lawson, 27, a supervisor with a local nonprofit. "But I like the idea that we are making this very personal occasion part of something that is historic for our community and our state."

At the time of their engagement, Lawson and Scott were determined to have a wedding ceremony even if same-sex marriage was not legal in Florida. But when a federal judge opened the door for legalized gay marriage in Florida, the couple fast-tracked their wedding plans.

There have been hitches and lawsuits and legal opinions and other ups and downs along the way, but the couple have been too busy planning their wedding to pay much attention.

All they know is their dream wedding is becoming a dream come true — regardless of whether their marriage is legal now, later or never.

"We knew we were going to make this commitment to each other. Let's not put it off. Let's just do it," said Scott, 27, a retail manager.

Amy Barnard and Kelly Brown

Amy Barnard and Kelly Brown, who have been together for eight years, plan to drive from their St. Petersburg home to get married in the mass ceremony planned by Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer.

"The second we can make this happen, no matter where we have to drive, we want to do it immediately," said Barnard, 44, a certified nurse's assistant who works with hospice patients. "Then we will come home and plan our beach wedding where we can include our family and friends."

Participating in a marriage ceremony with other gay couples will make the occasion more memorable than standing together before a justice of the peace, Barnard said.

"We thought it would be even more amazing to participate in a mass service where everyone feels the same, everyone's in love, and you're with a bunch of happy people," she said.

The couple, who have been engaged since 2008, said they thought of getting married in another state where same-sex marriage is legal, but knew the rights and benefits of a marriage license elsewhere would be invalid in Florida.

"We just thought that's a lot of ho-ha to come home and not be recognized [as a married couple]," Barnard said. "It's been such a long time that we've wanted to be each other's wife. It means so much to us to get the same respect and benefits that other couple's take for granted."

Brown, a 43-year-old restaurant manager, said she has spent her life waiting for this moment of equality to arrive.

"This means everything to me. I know I was born gay, and it's always been a struggle to get the same rights as everyone else," she said.

There are many rights, large and small, that bind a married couple together in ways not possible to unmarried partners.

"I would love to have my drivers license to have her last name on it. I would be covered on her insurance. We could buy a home together," Barnard said. "We just want to be connected to each other in every way possible."

The co-founder of a website which ranked Amal Alamuddin as the hottest barrister in London has hit out at her "unseemly and in-your-face" wedding to George Clooney.

Natalia Naish has slammed what she described as the "back-patting smugness that has accompanied the entire courtship and ceremony" between the couple.

Ms Naish previously put 36-year-old Ms Alamuddin at the top of her Barrister Hottie list for her website Your Barrister Boyfriend.

But in an article for Legal Cheek, she criticised the London-based lawyer for selling pictures of her wedding in Venice to glossy magazines - even comparing her to Hollywood socialite Kim Kardashian.

She wrote: "The problem I have with the Clooney wedding was not the excessiveness per se, but the back-patting smugness that has accompanied the entire courtship and ceremony.

"Even though George and Amal careened around Venice in speedboats, posed up a storm for the paparazzi like modern-day royalty and sold their wedding photos to glossy magazines, they received none of the tut-tutting that was directed at Kim Kardashian.

"Why? Because Kim Kardashian is perceived as vacant and shameless while George is supposedly a sophisticated humanitarian."

She continued: "The entire Clooney/Alamuddin wedding was a masterful piece of Hollywood magic. It was wildly expensive, carefully choreographed, predictably sentimental and satisfyingly public."

Ms Naish went on to accuse Clooney, 53, of being hypocritical for publicly slating the behaviour of tabloid newspapers despite selling pictures of his wedding to Hello! magazine.

She said: "Hello! Magazine has just come out with an exciting 40-page spread of the wedding, giving us unlimited access to their intimate and heartfelt ceremony. This seems quite rich given George’s hatred of tabloids and his very public spat with the Daily Mail."

Yesterday Ms Alamuddin's best friend Jae Kim said men had been "intimidated" by her before she met Clooney.

She told People magazine that she had concerns her friend would not end up in a lasting relationship after she was voted the most attractive barrister in London.
