QUETTA: A local court in Quetta issued on Thursday the non-bailable arrest warrant for Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan in a case of incitement against state institutions, registered in Balochistan's capital.
As per details, the warrant of arrest for the deposed prime minister was issued by judicial magistrate-I. The court directed the authorities to detain Khan and present him before the court.
