IHC grants pre arrest bail to Bushra Bibi in new Toshakhana case
Court accepts bail plea against Rs1 million surety bonds
Islamabad: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has granted the post-arrest bail to founder Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Imran Khan’s wife Bushra Bibi in new Toshakhana case.
The former first lady's bail plea was accepted against Rs1 million surety bonds during the hearing conducted by Justice Miangul Hassan Aurangzeb.
The PTI founder's wife had moved the IHC on October 3 seeking bail in the jewellery set case. The petition, filed via Advocate Yousaf Chaudhry, contended that the petitioner was a housewife and the allegations against her were baseless.
It added that the investigation was not transparent and the case was aimed at keeping the petitioner in jail. It said that the same case was being run with different angles.
Previously, a trial court had terminated the post-arrest bail of the former first lady on September 30.
