Former Prime Minister Imran Khan on Tuesday was again spotted at the Lahore Court in a ‘hilarious’ bulletproof headgear. The video of Khan entering the court premises has now gone viral on various social media platforms.
In the viral video, the PTI chief can be seen arriving at the court with black headgear as his security detail held up protective shields.
Notably, the video popped up on Tuesday when he reached Lahore Court in a case relating to the clashes that took place between PTI supporters and the police outside the PTI chief’s Zaman Park residence in March
The bucket on Imran Khan is for the security of his head.

A senior leader of Khan’s party PTI Faisal Vawda had earlier alleged that the Pakistan Prime Minister’s life is in danger and a plot has been hatched to assassinate him. He said,”PM Imran Khan has been advised to use bulletproof shield while addressing public gatherings…but he said he’ll leave this world at the time fixed by Almighty Allah.”
Court extends Imran’s interim bail in three cases to April 13
An anti-terrorism court in Pakistan’s Punjab province on Tuesday extended the interim bail to Imran Khan until April 13 in three cases filed relating to the clashes that took place between his supporters and the police outside the residence of the former prime minister in Lahore last month.
ATC Judge Abher Gul Khan, issuing the orders, extended the bail of 70-year-old Khan in multiple cases after the cricketer-turned-politician appeared before the court in a personal capacity, the Dawn newspaper reported.
In the last hearing, presiding judge Ijaz Ahmad Buttar directed the PTI chief to ensure his appearance at each subsequent hearing and also join the police investigation into the cases.
The police registered the cases against Khan and other PTI leaders for allegedly attacking the police teams and burning official property and vehicles outside his Zaman Park residence here.
Besides Section 7 of the Anti-Terrorism Act, 1997, offences under various sections of the Pakistan Penal Code have been included in the FIRs.
The clashes that erupted outside Khan’s Zaman Park residence were the result of a police operation to enforce an arrest warrant issued by an Islamabad court in the Toshakhana case.
Khan has been in the crosshairs for buying gifts, including an expensive Graff wristwatch he had received as the premier at a discounted price from the state depository called Toshakhana and selling them for profit.
Khan had repeatedly failed to attend case hearings, leading to the warrant being issued against him.
