Pakistan's former prime minister Imran Khan was on Tuesday arrested by paramilitary Rangers from outside the Islamabad High Court, his party said.
Khan, the chairman of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), was taken into custody by the Rangers when he appeared in court on anti-graft charges, his PTI lawyer Faisal Chaudhry said.
Former information minister and PTI Vice President Fawad Chaudhry said that the court has been "occupied by the Rangers" and lawyers “are being subjected to torture”.
