Khan’s House was raided during an overnight swoop but the former cricket captain was not present as he reportedly went into hiding.

This is not the first time the Tehrik-e-Insaf party chief has successfully evaded the police. Khan also escaped arrest in 2007 during a crackdown ordered by then President Parvez Musharraf.
