An accountability court in Rawalpindi on Thursday deferred former prime minister Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi’s indictment in the Toshakhana reference till Saturday (January 6). As per the details, accountability court Judge Muhammad Bashir put off framing of charges against the founder of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and ex-first lady after National Accountability Bureau’s (NAB) Prosecutor Amjad Pervaiz sought more time to advance their arguments in the case. A five-member special prosecution team
of the anti-graft watchdog is perusing the reference against the duo. Meanwhile, the accountability court judge set January 6 as a new date to frame charges against Khan – who was removed from office in April 2022 via a vote of no-confidence – and Bushra Bibi in the case. The court resumed hearing the case in the premises of Rawalpindi’s Adiala Jail where the PTI supremo is currently incarcerated.
