Pakistan’s high court will hear former Prime Minister Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi’s plea challenging their convictions in the Al Qadir Trust corruption case. They were sentenced over allegations linked to land received by a welfare organization. Khan has denied receiving any financial benefit from the trust or related transactions. The hearing is scheduled for Thursday.
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Sohail Afridi said PTI will launch a “full force” street movement following Imran Khan’s directions. He also alleged a coordinated propaganda drive is falsely suggesting the provincial government approved a military operation in the Tirah area of Khyber district. The remarks heighten political and security-related tensions in the region.
