In weird scenes, Imran Khan vacated the Prime Minister's official residence minutes before he lost a crucial no-confidence vote in the National Assembly, TV visuals showed on Saturday.
The move surprised many - as Imran Khan took the decision of vacating his residence midnight in a sudden manner. He could have stayed at the residence for a few days and vacated it later. A fleet of more tha 15 cars was seen leaving Khan's residence.
After Speaker Asad Qaiser handed over the reins to Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz's Ayaz Sadiq of the National Assembly, it became clear that the vote on the no-confidence motion would go ahead in the lower house.
The Opposition's no-trust motion against Khan succeeded an hour past midnight on Sunday, with 174 members in the 342-strong house voting in favour of the motion.
It meant that the 69-year-old cricketer-turned-politician would have to leave the Prime Minister's Office.
