Former Prime Minister of Pakistan Imran Khan was arrested from the Islamabad High Court, by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) in connection with the Alqadir Trust case.
The Alqadir Trust case is a corruption case that was filed against Khan in 2017 by the NAB. The case alleges that Khan used his influence as Prime Minister to illegally benefit the Alqadir Trust, a charity organization that he founded.
Khan has denied the allegations against him and has called the arrest a "political witch hunt." He has also vowed to fight the charges against him in court.
The arrest of Khan has sparked protests by his supporters across Pakistan. The protesters have blocked roads and burned tires in several cities.
The arrest of Khan is a major development in the political crisis in Pakistan. It remains to be seen how the arrest will affect the future of Khan's political career and the stability of the Pakistani government.
