In Pakistan, the court annulled the arrest warrant for former Prime Minister Imran Khan on the grounds that he did not attend the hearings.
According to the news in Dawn newspaper, Pakistani Justice Movement Party (PTI) leader Khan came from Lahore to the capital Islamabad to attend the hearing of his case.
However, Han’s appearance in court was delayed due to a scuffle between PTI supporters and the police outside the court.
After the developments, the court judge Zafer Iqbal allowed Han to sign the document showing his participation in the hearing from his car and not come to the courtroom.
Iqbal canceled the arrest warrant for Khan on the grounds that he did not appear in the hearings and postponed the hearing to 30 March.
