An Indian court has allowed US citizen Imran Khan to remain in the country until at least November 2, pausing a government order that asked him to leave for allegedly breaching immigration laws by participating in a protest. Khan, 43, had appealed the order in the Bombay High Court, stating it was unconstitutional and arbitrary. Under Indian law, foreigners participating in political protests can be considered a violation of immigration and visa rules.
