Imran Khan, Pakistan's former prime minister, is arrested in Islamabad

Supporters carry placards displaying a portrait of Imran Khan during a protest in Karachi on March 19, demanding release of arrested party workers in recent police clashes.

Paramilitary forces arrested Khan at a court in Islamabad, where he was facing corruption charges. The arrest has triggered rare pushback against the military, the country's most powerful institution.
