Imran Khan Seeks Urgent IHC Hearing: Al-Qadir Case Conviction Challenged
Former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan and his wife, Bushra Bibi, have moved the Islamabad High Court, seeking an expedited hearing to suspend their convictions in the Al-Qadir Trust case. The petition, filed on July 8, 2025, alleges a violation of their fundamental constitutional rights.
The couple contends that the delay in the hearing process amounts to undue hardship and is a clear case of political victimisation. They allege procedural irregularities and unfairness in the original trial.
The petition strongly accuses authorities of using the legal process for political purposes, aiming to hinder Mr. Khan’s political activities. They are demanding immediate action to rectify what they term a grave miscarriage of justice.
This development comes amidst heightened political tension in Pakistan. The outcome of this legal challenge could significantly impact the already volatile political landscape and shape the upcoming electoral scenario. The nation watches with bated breath as the court considers this high-profile plea.
