Mr Khan’s PTI party released video footage purporting to show a large crowd of police officers dressed in riot gear escorting the former PM to a waiting vehicle.

His lawyer said in a video posted to Twitter that he had been taken into custody outside the Islamabad High Court and that he was “badly injured” in the process.
