Former Pakistan prime minister Imran Khan has reached the Islamabad high court in connection with the Al Qadir Educational Trust case, in which the Supreme Court had ruled his arrest ‘unlawful’, the Pakistani media reported.

The high court has been turned into fortress with the Police and Frontier Corps being deployed outside the premises. The courthouse was surrounded by dozens of security officers in riot gear while barbed wire was placed at the entrance. Shipping containers were placed all around to seal the entire court compound.

The elaborate security arrangements have been made in wake of Imran Khan's party Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) calling upon its cadre to gather at Srinagar highway for ‘peaceful’ protests.
