Islamabad protests hampered: Government seeks to block supporters of Imran Khan

Supporters of jailed former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan are marching towards Islamabad to call for his release. Police have reportedly arrested thousands ahead of a rally in the capital. The government has sealed off parts of the city and shut down major roads. Some mobile and internet services have been suspended. The march comes days before a special court hearing, where Khan is expected to be charged with terrorism offences. Al Jazeera’s Kamal Hyder has the latest from Islamabad.
