Former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan, who has been lodged in jail since 2023, is likely to get bail on June 11 in the Al-Qadir Trust case, his party leader has said.
The Islamabad High Court (IHC) is set to hear the petitions requesting the suspension of sentences to Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi in the 190 million Pound Al-Qadir Trust case on June 11, news agency PTI reported.
Imran Khan, 72, has been lodged at the Adiala Jail since August 2023 in multiple cases.
Gohar Ali Khan, chief of Khan's Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), expressing confidence that the party’s founder will secure bail on June 11 adding that it is going to be an important day for both Khan and his wife.
Gohar told ARY News on Saturday that the party will collaborate with opposition parties to launch a movement, which will be led by the party’s patron-in-chief from jail. He urged the opposition parties to join PTI for the sake of the country’s survival and security and revealed that a strategy for the upcoming budget has been finalised.
“The party will address a press conference on June 9 regarding it,” he said.
The adjournment came after the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) requested additional time to prepare its arguments, ARY News reported.
Earlier last month, Khan had said he will lead his party’s upcoming protest movement against the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) led coalition government at the Centre, from the prison.
