Arrest of Pakistan's Imran Khan an 'internal matter', US says
The arrest of Imran Khan is Pakistan's 'internal matter', a US State Department spokesman said on Monday, declining to take a position on the legal troubles of the former prime minister and frequent US critic.
Police arrested Khan in Lahore on Saturday after a court sentenced him to three years in prison for illegally selling state gifts. The guilty verdict could stop the opposition leader from the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party from contesting a national election later this year.
