Imran Khan supporters clash with police in Islamabad, six dead in protests

Supporters of former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan broke through a lockdown in Islamabad on Tuesday, demanding his release. At least six people have died in the resulting violence, including four security personnel and one civilian. Police used tear gas to disperse crowds, and authorities warned of live fire if protesters attacked. Over 4,000 Khan supporters have been arrested since Friday, and mobile services have been disrupted in parts of the country. Khan, imprisoned for over a year, faces numerous criminal cases that his party claims are politically motivated. A court has banned rallies in the capital, and travel has been severely restricted due to roadblocks.
