To be clear since it seems like Pakistan is trying to re-muddy the waters here, the cable is authentic. It does show that the US pressured them to jail Khan. https://theintercept.com/2023/08/16/imran-khan-cable-pakistan-us/

Edit: my bad I meant the US pressured the military to remove him from office.
