Imran Khan, while responding to the arrest warrants, challenged the government to arrest him and put him in jail instead of giving threats.

“This is the movement of real freedom, I am ready to go to jail and my nation as well. We are not afraid of jail,” said Imran Khan while addressing a mammoth public gathering in Taxila. He said the nation was ready to give sacrifices for real freedom.

The warrant was issued by a magistrate in the capital Islamabad after the former premier failed to appear before him for a hearing on the case.
