Imran Khan's Political Crisis Deepens as Forces Surround His Home.

TL;DR Summary
Pakistani security forces have surrounded the home of former Prime Minister Imran Khan in Lahore, demanding he hand over dozens of "terrorists" he allegedly harbors. Khan claims the government intends to arrest or kill him, but he refuses to go into exile. Pakistan has been in crisis since April 2018, when the military signaled it no longer supported Khan's government. Khan demands early elections, which analysts say he would likely win, but he is embroiled in dozens of criminal cases, including serious corruption allegations.
