Members of the far-right Tehreek-e-Labiak Pakistan (TLP) clashed with police in Pakistan on Tuesday after the party’s leader was arrested for demanding the expulsion of the French ambassador, officials said.
At least one police officer and one protester died during the second day of clashes in Lahore, the country’s second-largest city, authorities told Reuters.
Activists blocked crucial transport routes overnight, demanding the release of TLP leader Saad Rizvi.
