Former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan was arrested from outside the Islamabad High Court on Tuesday. Khan, the chairman of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), was taken into custody by Rangers from court premises in Islamabad in a corruption case.

“Imran did not appear despite the notices, NAB (National Accountability Bureau) has arrested him for damaging the national treasury. No violence was done to them,” Interior Minister of Pakistan Rana Sanaullah said in a tweet.
