Pakistan Police Raids Ex-Prime Minister Khan’s House

Pakistan police have raided the house of former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan who is on his way for a court appearance in Islamabad.

Khan was summoned by the court in relation to the state gift case in which he is set to be indicted on Saturday.

After his departure from Lahore, police in the capital of the Punjab province carried out the raid at his residence.

Khan who is the chief of his Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party condemned the raid and said it was carried out when his wife Bushra Begum was alone at home.

“Punjab police have led an assault on my house in Zaman Park where Bushra Begum is alone. Under what law are they doing this?

"This is part of London Plan where commitments were made to bring absconder Nawaz Sharif to power as quid pro quo for agreeing to one appointment."

Khan’s arrest warrant, issued by a court in Islamabad, is related to his non-appearance in the court to answer a case brought by the Election Commission of Pakistan.

He was accused of not declaring gifts received during his time as prime minister from 2018 to 2022 or the profit made from selling them.

Khan denies the charges, saying they are politically motivated.
