Protesters have stormed military buildings, ransacked the residence of a top army general in the eastern city of Lahore, and set ablaze state buildings and assets in other places since Khan’s arrest by the anti-graft agency on Tuesday in a land fraud case.
Authorities arrested Shah Mahmood Qureshi, a former foreign minister and vice chairman of Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party early on Thursday, a statement on his Twitter profile said. Police have arrested more than 1,650 protesters in Khan’s home province of Punjab for violence, the police chief’s office said in a statement. Some 80 workers of Khan’s party were also arrested in the southwestern city of Quetta, police said.
