FIA constituted four-member team to arrest Imran Khan before appearance in LHC

Lahore: (Staff Reporter) The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) constituted a four-member team to arrest Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan ahead of his appearance before the Lahore High Court (LHC). The FIA also consulted lawyers’ organizations so that the matter might go peacefully.

According to the source, the LHC had earlier disposed of Mr Khan’s plea seeking protective bail after he failed to appear, citing his leg injury as his doctors barred him from travelling. Amid rumors about his arrest, the former prime minister decided to appear before the court later.

As per details The FIA team, under the supervision of Director Lahore division Sarfraz Khan Virk, would arrest Mr Khan and hand him over to the Islamabad team. Sources said that it was decided to arrest Mr Khan from his residence at Zaman Park but the party workers’ reaction led them to revisit their decision. “Mr Khan will be arrested after he appears before the LHC”, sources added.
