Supporters of Pakistan’s former Prime Minister Imran Khan clashed with police seeking to arrest him outside his home
on Tuesday, even as the longtime politician told CNN that he was “mentally prepared to spend the night in a cell.” “I want a proper warrant of arrest and I want to see that, my lawyers want to see the warrant,” he told CNN. He also said that he believed his arrest was both inevitable and politically motivated, referencing upcoming by-elections in April and the general election in October. “It’s a matter of time.
In a statement to CNN, the country’s Information Minister denied any political involvement in the case. “The government has nothing to do with the arrest , and the arrest has nothing to do with elections. The police is only complying with the orders of the court,” Marriyum Aurangzeb said. “Instead of cooperating with law enforcement officials, Imran Khan is breaking the law, defying court orders and using his party workers as human shields to evade arrest and stoke unrest,” she added.
