Lahore [Pakistan], March 15 : The Lahore High Court on Wednesday stopped police operation to arrest former Prime Minister of Pakistan and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan till 10 am tomorrow at Zaman Park, reported Dawn.This development comes after a day-long escalation continued between PTI supporters and law enforcement agencies outside former prime minister Imran residence.Contingents of police that were closing in on Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan's residence in Zaman Park to arrest him for the last two days have started retreating.PTI workers celebrated outside Zaman Park as law enforcement agencies pulled back. As per police, the court-ordered operation halted to accommodate Pakistan Super League matches, reported Dawn."Police will not advance on Khan's residence until the ongoing Pakistan Super League (PSL) 8 cricket match is over," sources quoted police officials as saying.After the withdrawal of the police, PTI chief Imran Khan came out of his residence, in a mask, and met the workers.

Imran has skipped indictment several times, which led to the judge issuing non-bailable arrest warrants for him.However, they were met with strong resistance from PTI workers, who pelted stones at them. The police responded with volleys of tear gas.Earlier today, following the police's failure in arresting PTI Chairman Imran Khan, a large number of Punjab Rangers arrived at the former prime minister's Zaman Park residence to implement court orders.As per Geo News, the police and rangers reached the residence of the PTI leader at Zaman Park.
