Sher Afzal Khan Marwat (Urdu: شیر افضل خان مروت) is a Pakistani politician who is member of the National Assembly of Pakistan since 29 February 2024.

Additionally, in 2024, a video emerged of Marwat striking an individual at a party rally, which he later justified as disciplining his "personal guard."

In 2024, he criticized Islamabad High Court judges for not taking legal action regarding alleged interference by the Inter-Services Intelligence, advocating for a stronger judicial response.

His father, Muhammad Azeem Khan Begu Khel, participated in local body elections and served as the chairman of district and tehsil councils.

Regarding the post-election period, Marwat criticized the party leadership's approach, suggesting that Gohar should have taken the lead after the polls but failed to do so.

PTI demanded that Marwat submit an apology letter within two days, warning of action in accordance with party policy if an unsatisfactory response was received.

Marwat declared his determination to continue criticizing other party members, asserting, "I don't back down in the face of adversity."

Marwat criticized the manner in which the show-cause notice was issued, alleging it was designed to weaken PTI and divert attention from protests.

[19] On 15 March 2024, Marwat criticized PTI and its leadership, attributing the loss of over 80 seats in national and provincial assemblies to the party's own "flawed decisions."

Marwat specifically highlighted two decisions that he believed led to PTI losing reserved seats after the elections on February 8.

According to him, PTI's choice to withdraw from forming an electoral alliance with Rabita Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (RJUI) and later opting for a deal with Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Nazriati (PTI-N) dealt a significant blow to the party.

Marwat identified PTI's decision to ally with Majlis Wahdat-e-Muslimeen (MWM) to secure reserved seats as the second mistake of the party.

The repercussions of Marwat's statement were immediate, with Sahibzada Hamid Raza choosing to boycott PTI's conference on Islamophobia in Islamabad.

Subsequently, Hamid Raza took to the social media platform X to express his dissatisfaction, urging PTI members to resolve their internal disputes privately.

Speaking during a live session on X Spaces, he asserted, "During the previous PTI government, individuals didn't just become billionaires, but trillionaires [through corruption]."

"[22] In late March 2024, Marwat participated in an Iftar dinner in Abbottabad, where party dissidents and former speaker of Provincial Assembly of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Mushtaq Ahmed Ghani were in attendance.

Asghar noted that Marwat's arrival for the event in the company of an individual previously expelled by the party deeply disappointed loyal workers, causing them considerable distress.

He suggested that the invitations extended to other PTI leaders and workers for the event seemed to be a deliberate attempt to undermine the party's interests during its challenging period.

[23] Following these incidents, PTI founder Imran Khan took action on 3 April 2024, by removing Marwat from significant roles within the party due to his contentious and outspoken political stance.

Dissatisfaction among PTI followers and supporters regarding his management of media affairs led to calls for his dismissal from key positions.

Additionally, Marwat's name was excluded from the list of attendees for the meeting with Imran Khan, and the PTI leadership informed the jail administration of this decision.

Regarding the controversy surrounding the letter penned by Islamabad High Court (IHC) judges to the Supreme Court of Pakistan (SCP), alleging interference by the Inter-Services Intelligence, he believed that the IHC judges should have taken legal action, such as issuing contempt notices, against those involved in the interference instead of addressing the matter through a letter to the SCP.

However, PTI distanced itself from Marwat's statements, asserting that there was no evidence to suggest Saudi Arabia's involvement in Khan's ousting.

"[37] On 27 September 2023, during a live TV program on Express News hosted by Javed Chaudhry, Sher Afzal Marwat argued with PML(N) senator Afnan Ullah Khan.

[42][43] In April 2024, Marwat became entangled in another controversy following the emergence of a video showing him striking an individual during a party rally in Peshawar.

A substantial contingent of police apprehended him, and subsequently, the Lahore deputy commissioner issued a 30-day detention order for Marwat.
