Imran Khan has always said the mounting cases against him are politically motivated and intended to stop him from running for election. This recent arrest could do exactly that.
The last time Mr Khan was arrested back in May, it sparked widespread protest and clashes between his supporters and the police. Military installations were attacked, a rare moment in the nation that illustrated the depth of anger. Since then, many of Mr Khan’s PTI members have been arrested or left the party.
There is a chance that once again the supreme court intervenes and Mr Khan’s legal team wins its appeal against the three-year sentence. There is the possibility once again of widespread protest. He is no doubt a popular figure and he insists he would win an election.
