Amid high-voltage drama in Pakistan, former Prime Minister Imran Khan on Tuesday again spotted at the Lahore Court in a "hilarious" bulletproof shield. The video which is now viral on social media platforms, shows Imran arriving to court with black headgear as his security detail held up protective shields.
Notably, the video popped up on Tuesday when he reached Lahore Court in a case relating to the clashes that took place between PTI supporters and the police outside the PTI chief’s Zaman Park residence in March.
Court extends Imran’s interim bail in three cases to April 13
According to a report by a Pakistani English daily, Dawn, an anti-terrorism court in Lahore extended interim bail to PTI chief Imran Khan until April 13 in three cases filed in the Punjab capital.
It is worth mentioning the country witnessed major chaos the past month when over 10,000 police started a search operation at the house of Khan after he left for a court in Lahore. In a social media post, the cricketer-turned-politician accused the police of working as per the instructions from London and added his wife was alone when police "raided" his residence.
In a subsequent post, he condemned the police action and urged his supporters to rally against the incumbent government and their "illegal" orders.
