Pakistan's former prime minister Imran Khan was arrested on Tuesday in a major escalation of a political crisis that has pitted the current government against Mr. Khan since he was ousted from office last year and that now raises the prospect of mass unrest.Mr. Khan was at a court hearing in Islamabad when he was arrested by paramilitary troops, a day after the Pakistani military issued a strong statement against the former leader accusing him of making false accusations against a senior intelligence official.
