BaraClashes with police injured at least 5 Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf protesters.
Governor’s rule in Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa has sidelined the party’s chief minister, Sohail Afridi.
Reports say police fired live rounds into the air and tear gas, and a National Database and Registration Authority office was torched.
Police say 50 were arrested, the provincial information adviser says 42, and neither figure is verified.
Roads into Bara Bazaar stayed closed after the protest ended.
