A charred lorry, empty tear gas shells and posters of former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan - it was all that remained of a massive protest led by Khan’s wife, Bushra Bibi, that had sent the entire capital into lockdown.

Bushra Khan, the wife of Pakistan's former Prime Minister Imran Khan, emerged from the shadows this week to lead one of the country's largest protests, mobilizing thousands in support of her jailed husband.

Pakistan this week saw serious turmoil, with supporters of former Prime Minister Imran Khan defying government lockdowns and violent police opposition to demand the release of jailed Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder.
