Islamabad: Former prime minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi on Tuesday filed separate post-arrest bail pleas in the new Toshakhana case which involves a jewellery set gifted by the Saudi crown prince.

Both of them mentioned the state and the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) chairman as parties to the case.

Filed through Barrister Salman Safdar under Section 9(b) of NA Ordinance 1999 and Section 497 of Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC), the applicants requested the accountability court to grant post-arrest bail to the couple to in the "interest of justice and fair play".

The couple is on judicial remand in Adiala jail over the Toshakhana reference filed by the bureau last week.
