Supporters of Imran Khan protested across Pakistan, asking for the release of the former prime minister after his arrest in Islamabad.
Imran Khan was appearing in the Islamabad high court when he was arrested by military personnel on Tuesday. Officers from the anti-corruption unit, the National Accountability Bureau, broke into the room where Khan was and whisked him into a military vehicle.
Officials said arrest warrants for Khan had been issued last week in a separate graft case, for which he had not obtained bail. Khan faces charges in various corruption cases including terrorism. He says these are part of a plot to discredit him
