Former Prime Minister Imran Khan says he has been "isolated" since the arrest of his party's leaders. Pakistan's government has announced that dozens of pro-Khan protesters will be tried by military courts.

They are accused of setting fire to military buildings during protests following the former prime minister's arrest. Imran Khan believes that the use of these courts "means the end of our democracy". "This is an unprecedented crackdown," he said in an interview with France 24 from his residence in Lahore.
