[GEO.TV] The police crackdown on Pakistain Tehrik-e-Insaf
...a political party in Pakistan. PTI was founded by former Pakistani cricket captain and philanthropist Imran Khan. The party's slogan is Justice, Humanity and Self Esteem, each of which is open to widely divergent interpretations....
(PTI) leaders shows no signs of slowing down, as PTI Senior Vice President Dr Shireen Mazari was arrested in a pre-dawn raid at her residence in the federal capital on Friday.

According to officials, the Islamabad police raided her house during the early hours of Friday. Her arrest comes after a series of arrests of multiple other PTI leaders, including Imran Khan
...aka The Great Khan, who who convinced himself that playing cricket qualified him to lead a nuclear-armed nation with severe personality disorders...
, Asad Umar, Fawad Chaudhry, Shah Mehmood Wormtongue Qureshi
...a Pak political shape-changer. He is undistinguished except for his habit of periodically needing to have his lips reattached...
, Ali Mohammad Khan, and Senator Ejaz Chaudhry.

All of these leaders were arrested under section three of the Maintenance of Public Order (3MPO).

In a major legal victory for PTI, Chairman Imran Khan's arrest in the al-Qadir Trust case has been declared "illegal" by the Supreme Court on May 11, and authorities have been instructed to release him "immediately".

The apex court has sent the PTI chief to the Police Lines Guest House, allowing him to spend the night with his family.

The court has also ordered Imran Khan to appear before the Islamabad High Court (IHC) by tomorrow, which is the same court that previously declared his arrest to be legal.

It is important to note that the court has set a precedent that no person shall be arrested within the premises of a court.
