Lahore: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan would not appear before the sessions court in Islamabad, a party’s senior leader revealed on Sunday.


Lahore: PTI leader Musarrat Jamshed Cheema on Sunday said that former Prime Minister Imran Khan would not appear before the court in Islamabad on Monday (today).
She revealed that Khan would lead party rally in Lahore instead of appearing before the court. She made this claim while talking exclusively with GNN on Sunday.
The development is quite important as the PTI Chief is due before the court on March 13 in Thoshakhana case but he is all set to lead the party’s rally in Lahore.
Imran Khan earlier in the day postponed rally in Lahore after the local administration refused to remove Section 144 due to PSL match and marathon rally in the provincial capital.
Talking to GNN Bureau Chief Shahzad Hussain Butt, PTI leader Musarrat Jamshed Cheema said that Imran Khan would lead the rally in Lahore and he would not appear before the court in Islamabad on Monday (tomorrow).
The reports suggested that Imran Khan could be taken into custody if he failed to turn up before the court in Islamabad.
Last week, The Islamabad High Court had suspended the non-bailable arrest warrants of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan issued by a district and sessions court in the Toshakhana reference till March 13.
A single bench of Chief Justice Aamer Farooq heard Imran Khan’s petition challenging the issuance of his non-bailable arrest warrants by Additional Sessions Judge Zafar Iqbal in the Toshakhana case and accepted the same, directing the PTI chairman to ensure that he appears before the lower court on March 13.
The chief justice late in the evening announced its reserved verdict.
The sessions court was all set to frame charges against Imran Khan in Toshakhana reference on February 28 but his lawyer had asked the judge that he be exempted from the hearing because he had to appear in several other courts. His indictment was deferred twice before. Then, the judge had issued arrest warrants for Imran and adjourned the hearing till March 7. However, the warrants were later challenged before the IHC.
