An Islamabad court has granted bail to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi in the Toshakhana fake receipt case. Imran Khan was also granted bail in five other cases, including those related to attempted murder and defaming the army.
According to the FIR, Imran and Bushra have been accused of committing fraud by presenting a fake receipt that falsely indicated the sale of gifts — such as watches and cufflinks — allegedly obtained from Toshakhana using forged signatures. Additional District and Sessions Judge Muhammad Afzal Majuka observed that the prosecution failed to present evidence against Imran and his wife. The court approved their bail pleas against surety bonds of Rs 50,000 each.
Judge Majuka granted bail to the PTI founder in five additional cases, subject to surety bonds of Rs 50,000 each.
In the case concerning defamation of the army, the court ruled that no material had been brought on record proving that the petitioner committed the offence.
