Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Sunday evaded arrest as his supporters prevented the Islamabad police from entering his Zaman Park residence in Lahore amid high drama. The officers and officials of the Lahore police later escorted the Islamabad team to Zaman Park at noon. The police said that the PTI leaders at Zaman Park had assured them that Imran would abide by the law. Till late night, the presence of police contingents had been increased in the surroundings of Zaman Park. The reserves of Anti-Riot Force (ARF) at Qila Gujjar Singh – which is hardly two kilometres away from Zaman Park, were also put on high alert.
