Arrest of Imran Khan information


On 9 May 2023, former Pakistani Prime Minister and politician Imran Khan was arrested from inside the High Court in Islamabad by National Accountability Bureau (NAB) on the charges of corruption in connection with the Al-Qadir Trust, which he owns alongside his wife, Bushra Bibi.[1][2]

The arrest came a day after the military through its media wing ISPR had responded negatively to Khan's accusations of a high-ranking ISI official being implicated in an assassination attempt on his life the previous year.[3] ISPR declared Khan's arrest to be legal;[4] however, the following day, the Supreme Court of Pakistan deemed the arrest unlawful and mandated Khan's immediate release.[5]

The next day on 12 May, Islamabad High Court granted two weeks bail to Khan. Shortly upon his release, Khan directly accused the army chief Asim Munir of playing a role in his arrest.[6]

Attempts to arrest Khan led to protests by his supporters throughout the country.[7][8]
