The police entered the home of former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan in Lahore on Saturday while he was on his way to Islamabad for a court hearing in a corruption case.

According to reports, Pakistan police officials entered Khan’s residence in Lahore after 'bulldozing the main gate' and took several of his supporters into custody.

'Punjab police have led an assault on my house in Zaman Park where Bushra Begum is alone. Under what law are they doing this?', Imran Khan tweeted while on his way to Islamabad in the Toshakhana case. 

Several videos on social media show Khan's supporters at his home being lathi-charged by the police.
