Pakistan has found itself mired in a political crisis as protests calling for the government's ouster enter their third week. The demonstrations led by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf party chief Imran Khan and Pakistan Awami Tehreek chairman Tahir ul-Qadri have been pushing for the resignation of prime minister Nawaz Sarif over claims of corruption and election fraud. Sharif assumed office last year in Pakistan's first democratic transition of power.
Several rounds of talks between Sharif and the protesting leaders have only exacerbated the situation with neither sides willing to bend their demands. Chaos in Islamabad took a new turn with the protests turning violent and the Army stepping in to intervene.
Vice media, with its documentary-style reporting, has been covering the popular movement in Islamabad.
