Supporters Flood the streets demanding release of Imran Khan

Supporters have flooded the streets in a show of solidarity for former Prime Minister Imran Khan, who is currently imprisoned in Adiala Jail in Punjab, Pakistan.

Protesters are marching towards the capital, Islamabad, with security forces deployed at every major intersection to prevent their progress. So far, reports indicate that more than 4,000 Imran Khan supporters have been arrested.

Among those detained are five Members of Parliament (MPs) from Khan's party, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI). Bushra Bibi, the wife of Imran Khan, has called on supporters to continue their march toward Islamabad until the former Prime Minister is released.

Meanwhile, mobile and internet services have been shut down in several areas, and key roads leading to Islamabad were blocked with containers as early as November 23.
