From the BBC:
Pakistani opposition leader Benazir Bhutto has been served a 30-day detention notice.
The move came as she tried to leave her Islamabad home, which has been blocked off by police to stop her joining a planned rally in nearby Rawalpindi.
Police in the city clashed with Ms Bhutto's supporters defying a ban on rallies imposed under emergency rule.
Ms Bhutto has vowed to wage a campaign aimed at forcing President Pervez Musharraf to stand down as army chief.
Officers in riot gear blocked off the road to the former prime minister's house with barbed wire on Friday, with no-one being allowed in or out.
The 30-day detention order was served on Ms Bhutto after she tried to cross the police cordon.
