Pakistan’s former prime minister Imran Khan appeared before the Lahore High Court which granted him protective bail in a case linked to violent protests outside the election commission, amidst high drama inside the court premises where hundreds of his supporters converged to show solidarity with him.
As per PTI report, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) activists staged a violent protest after 70-year-old Khan was disqualified by the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) in the prohibited funding case last year.
Justice Tariq Saleem Sheikh had directed Khan to appear before court for hearing of his protective bail petition in the case.
