Several hundred Khan supporters gathered outside the house after a police team arrived to arrest him.
A few hundred Khan supporters gathered outside his house after a police team arrived from Islamabad to arrest him on a court order, government spokesman Amir Mir told Reuters.
The workers started pelting the police with stones and bricks, and in response police directed a water cannon at them and in some cases baton charged them, he said. "Our understanding is that the police can't arrest Imrabn Khan because he has secured a protective bail from a high court," his aide Shah Mehmood Qureshi told reporters.
