Pakistan’s former prime minister Imran Khan was shot in the leg by an unknown assailant while at a vehicular protest.
Gunmen opened fire on Khan’s motorcade as he led a protest march in Islamabad to demand early elections, with one bullet hitting the former prime minister in the leg.
Video shows Khan being helped by supporters and being carefully placed into a vehicle.
The politician was rushed to hospital, with local media reporting that he is out of danger.
Eight people were reportedly injured when gunmen opened fire near Wazirabad, a city in northern Pakistan.
