LAHORE, Pakistan (Reuters) -A Pakistan court on Wednesday ordered police to halt an operation to arrest former Prime Minister Imran Khan, bringing an end clashes with supporters of the former cricketer outside his home in which police fired water cannon and tear gas.
Security forces withdrew from around the house in the eastern city of Lahore, easing political instability in the nuclear-armed nation which is struggling with an economic crisis and awaiting an International Monetary Fund bailout.
