PTI Chairman Imran Khan has said his party is facing a “reign of terror”, criticising the arrest of several of his party’s leaders and members.

In an interview with Deutsche Welle, he said: “An unprecedented crackdown is taking place.

“My entire senior leadership is in jail. They get bail from court [and] as they come out of the court, they again get re-arrested … right now, it is a reign of terror that we are facing.”
