Imran Khan has been granted bail for two weeks by the Islamabad High Court in a case related to money laundering.
The former Pakistan prime minister was arrested from the premises of the Islamabad High Court on May 9 just before the hearing of his pre-arrest bail plea. Pakistan's Supreme Court declared his arrest illegal on Thursday and ordered his immediate release.
His arrest by paramilitary Rangers sparked widespread protests across Pakistan, prompting the deployment of the Army here as well as in Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan provinces.
Khan, 70, arrived at the court shortly after 11:30 am local time amid tight security and underwent the biometric identification process and other formalities.
The hearing was delayed for nearly two hours due to security reasons.
