NextImg:Pakistan's Supreme Court rules ex-Prime Minister Imran Khan's arrest was illegal

Pakistan's Supreme Court ruled Thursday that former Prime Minister Imran Khan's arrest was unlawful in a decision overturning a lower court's ruling earlier this week that said it was legal.

The court ordered Khan to be released, officials in Khan's Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf political party said on Twitter.

Paramilitary troops arrested Khan on May 9 on multiple corruption charges. 

At least eight people died and hundreds were arrested in anti-military protests that broke out following Khan's arrest, according to CNN

Khan had said he was arrested because officials wanted to prevent him from campaigning in Pakistan's upcoming elections.
