Ex-PM Imran Khan was hauled away in a dramatic arrest after storming a court compound, sparking fresh chaos ahead of Pakistan’s crucial elections.

Khan’s Arrest Captured on Camera

Paramilitary forces in armoured vehicles swooped on Khan as he entered court, dragging him off in front of stunned onlookers. The former prime minister, ousted in April last year, fiercely denies corruption charges he calls “politically motivated.”

Targeted and Undeterred

Since losing power, Khan has been hit with dozens of legal cases. Despite the pressure, he remains defiant. Last November, he even survived a gun attack on his convoy during a protest march. Now, he’s accusing a senior military officer of plotting to kill him—a claim the military quickly slammed as “baseless.”

Election Drama Heats Up

General elections loom later this year, and Khan remains the key opposition figure. His arrest is a game-changer that’s sure to shake up the political landscape as Pakistan heads to the polls.
