No official footage exists with the IHC, reported Dawn.When the judges asked for the footage, they were informed that the CCTV of the arrest was stolen to which the judges slammed the court administration.On Tuesday, Imran was arrested outside Islamabad High Court by Pakistan Rangers on a warrant issued by National Accountability Bureau (NAB) in the Al-Qadir Trust case.The Pakistan Rangers broke the windows of the bio-metrics room while Imran was present there. They broke in through the windows and arrested the former PM. Then he was dragged out of Islamabad High Court.According to reports, the former PM was visibly made to crawl when the Rangers held him by the neck and dragged him towards a police vehicle.A division bench of the Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Friday ordered not to arrest Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan in any case filed after May 9, reported Samaa TV and ARY News.The court also granted the former premier bail for two weeks in the Al-Qadir Trust case.The judgment came a day after the Pakistan Supreme Court termed his arrest from the IHC premises "invalid and unlawful", Dawn reported.Further, according to Dawn News, the Islamabad High Court, while granting a reprieve to the former prime minister, said Imran Khan should be granted bail if martial law, which is sanctioned by Article 245 of the country's Constitution, has been enforced in the country for two weeks.However, there were no reports in the Pakistan media suggesting that martial law has been enforced in the country.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
