‘This is London plan’: Imran Khan ‘explains’ clash between Pakistani police and his supporters – Hindustan Times

Following violent clashes between Pakistani police and Imran Khan supporters outside the former Prime Minister’s home in Lahore, which left several injured on both sides, Imran Khan said: “The way we were attacked by the police is one Premiere. There is no reason why they took this step. My bail was on the 18th. They knew why I didn’t come to bail…for security reasons.”

“You’re getting ready again, I know. I have committed to the Lahore High Court to stand trial on the 18th. But it was not accepted,” Imran Khan said ahead of his possible arrest.

“Why wasn’t it taken? Because London is part of the plan. Nawaz Sharif was assured that I and my party would be attacked and taken down,” Imran Khan said while condemning the police for attacking supporters with batons and tear gas grenades.

Imran Khan’s supporters gathered outside his home as a police team from Islamabad arrived to arrest him on court orders, while Imran Khan called on his supporters to stand up for the rule of law and fight for true independence.

“The police came to arrest me and send me to prison. If anything happens to me or I’m jailed or they kill me, you have to prove that this nation will continue to fight even without Imran Khan,” he said in a videotaped statement after the violence.

Several supporters of Imran Khan were injured when police resorted to tear gas fire, Portal reported.

The arrest warrant was issued in a case against Imran Khan for illegally selling government gifts during his tenure from 2018 to 2022.
