Imran Khan, Pakistan’s former prime minister, has been arrested during a court appearance in the capital, Islamabad.
Video of the arrest shared by Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party showed security forces in riot-control gear whisking the 70-year-old away in a van.
Since his removal from power last year, Khan has been slapped with dozens of charges, which he denies and says are politically motivated.
“Imran Khan has been arrested in the Qadir Trust case,” the Islamabad police said on its official Twitter account, referring to a corruption case.
