Former Pakistan cricket captain and Prime Minister Imran Khan has been arrested by paramilitary officers outside the High Court in Pakistan.

Khan is said to have appeared in court in Islamabad on corruption charges.

Footage online, verified by Sky News, shows Khan being led into an armoured vehicle by security forces.

Speaking anonymously to the Associated Press, anti-corruption officials said Pakistan’s National Accountability Bureau had put out a warrant for Khan’s arrest last week in a separate case, but he had not obtained bail.

The 72-year-old was ousted from power last year, and has spent his time campaigning against his successor, claiming his removal was illegal.
