LAHORE: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Sardar Latif Khosa on Wednesday expressed hope that the founder of their party Imran Khan would be released from jail within 10 days.
In a statement, the PTI leader lauded the Islamabad High Court’s (IHC) decision, approving PTI founder Imran Khan’s bail application in the 190 million pound corruption case.
“No legal case was registered against PTI founder Imran Khan,” Latif Khosa said, noting that he would be released from jail within 10 days.
A two-member bench, comprising IHC CJ Aamer Farooq and Justice Tariq Mehmood Jahangiri, reserved the verdict a day ago after the completion of arguments.
In its short order today, the IHC ordered the authorities to release the PTI founder against the surety bond of Rs1 million.
However, Imran Khan will stay remain in jail as the PTI founder was currently facing trail in cipher and Nikkah cases.
According to Khosa, former prime minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto was hanged after he waved a cipher in Rawalpindi’s Raja Bazar. Today, after 45 years, the court ruled that the execution was unlawful.
