Violent protests hurt people on both sides

A government spokesman and witnesses claimed that incidences of protests have been reported in numerous locations around the nation prior to the potential arrest of Imran Khan. There have been numerous injuries on both sides of this.

Why is Imran Khan being detained?

Imran Khan is the subject of two non-bailable warrants issued by an Islamabad court. The Toshakhana case is connected to the first instance. The judge was threatened in the second instance, on the other hand. On the dates involved in both cases, Imran Khan failed to show up in court. Moreover, Imran Khan filed a court appearance exemption appeal that has not yet been heard. According to Imran Khan's solicitor, his life would be in danger if he appeared in court. They should be permitted to appear virtually in such circumstances.
