Pakistan's lawmakers on Saturday voted to boot Prime Minister Imran Khan from office in a motion of no confidence, days after he blocked a similar attempt by having the parliament dissolved and calling for fresh elections.

Opposition parties were able to secure 174 votes in the 342-member National Assembly in support of the motion, the house speaker said, making it a majority vote. Khan was deserted by coalition partners who blame him for a crumbling economy and his failure to deliver on his campaign promises.

The result means Khan will no longer hold office and the Assembly members will now elect a new prime minister and government. Khan has claimed he's the victim of a US conspiracy to topple him.
