Islamabad: The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan was shifted to Adiala Jail from Attock prison following the Islamabad High Court (IHC) order on Tuesday.
The concerned authorities were directed by IHC Chief Justice Aamer Farooq to transfer the PTI chairman from Attock prison to Adiala Jail.
IHC CJ Aamer Farooq voiced his displeasure at the 'under-trial prisoner' being held in Attock prison rather than Adiala Jail and ordered the relevant authorities to transfer the former prime minister, who is presently serving a three-year term in the Toshakhana case, to the Adiala Jail.
Earlier today¸ The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan was shifted from Attock Jail to Adiala prison on Tuesday evening as per court orders by the Islamabad Police.
Attock Jail was met by a large detachment of Islamabad Police, supported by a convoy of 13 vehicles, including police vans and an ambulance with medical personnel and physicians.
Imran Khan's relocation was decided upon as a result of the ongoing court case being heard in Attock Jail regarding the cypher case.
The decision follows a holdup in the court order's execution, which Chief Justice Aamir Farooq issued yesterday.
The court also reserved its verdict on a petition seeking an open hearing of the PTI chief’s bail plea in a cypher case.
The PTI chief is facing charges of corruption, misuse of authority in several cases, including the Toshakhana case, the cipher case and the marriage case.
