IN A temporary relief for Imran Khan, a Pakistani court Wednesday ordered the police to stop till Thursday its operation outside the former Prime Minister’s residence here to arrest him in a corruption case after a scuffle between the security personnel and his supporters. Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party on Tuesday challenged the police operation in the Lahore High Court, requesting it to direct the Government to end it. On Wednesday, the police halted the operation after the Lahore High Court (LHC) summoned the Punjab Inspector-General, Chief Secretary and Islamabad Police (operations) head on the petition filed by PTI leader Fawad Chaudhry seeking order for the Government to stop the police operation at the Zaman Park residence of Khan. “IGP Punjab Dr Usman Anwar appeared before the court and told it that police had to launch the operation as Islamabad police had brought an arrest warrant of Imran Khan in Toshakhana gifts case. We had to implement this order under law. He said, some 59 policemen have been injured during the clashes with the PTI workers,” a court official told PTI.
