Bushra Bibi's daughters move court to meet her

Islamabad: The daughters of former Prime Minister Imran Khan's wife Bushra Bibi approached the court to meet their mother.

Special Judge Central Islamabad Shah Arjumand heard the petition filed by Barrister Salman Safdar and Khalid Yousuf Chaudhry and sought a reply from Superintendent Adiala Jail tomorrow.  

The petition took the stand that the daughters did not meet their mother for three weeks. Bibi is unjustly imprisoned and is deprived of basic rights. The family has the right to meet the prisoner every week.

According to the petitioner, the meeting has been forbidden by the government officials and it is against the basic rights. The meeting should be arranged as soon as possible. There are serious reservations in this regard.

The court issued a notice and adjourned the hearing till tomorrow.
