Pakistan: Former PM Imran Khan leads Lahore rally, vows to get rid of 'imported' Shehbaz govt

Thousands of supporters of former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan's Tehreek-e-Insaf party took part in a rally in Lahore on Saturday.

On the 75th anniversary of Pakistan's independence from British rule, Khan vowed that a "fight for real freedom will continue until we get rid of this imported government and elections are held. We will struggle together."

Khan has pledged to hold anti-government rallies across the country.

The former prime minister was ousted from power in April this year following a no confidence vote.

He had since alleged his political opponents ousted him as part of a US plot.
