TL;DR Summary

Former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan said police had surrounded his house and that he expected to be rearrested soon, after the government warned him to hand over supporters who it blamed for attacks on the army. Khan was arrested on May 9 on graft allegations, which he denies, triggering a wave of violence that has deepened political instability in the country. The government accused him of sheltering aides and supporters wanted over the attacks following his arrest, and warned he had 24 hours to hand them over or face a police operation.
