At least eight PTI workers have been arrested by police at GPO Chowk on Mall Road near the Lahore High Court after they gathered there on the party’s call to protest against alleged theft of their mandate.

According to a Dawn.com correspondent present at the protest site, a police contingent was deployed near the court before the protest started, and once a few protestors congregated there, the police began making the arrests.

The police action managed to disperse the remaining protestors.
