The concerned authorities have been directed to strictly enforce the ban and prevent any of the listed individuals from traveling abroad with immediate effect, sources added.

The embattled PM is on bail till June 2 in three terrorism cases filed against Pakistan’s former prime minister in the wake of violence that erupted after his arrest on May 9.

On May 9, violent protests erupted after the arrest of Khan in a corruption case by paramilitary Rangers from the premises of the Islamabad High Court.

The crisis unfolded in Pakistan after Imran Khan was arrested by the paramilitary Pakistan Rangers at the Islamabad High Court premises on May 9, which triggered unrest across the country.

For the first time in Pakistan’s history, protesters stormed the army headquarters (GHQ) in Rawalpindi and also torched a corps commander’s house in Lahore.
