    Sher Afzal Marwat thinks Imran can be released from jail if Nawaz agrees to it

    Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Sher Afzal Marwat has stated that party founder Imran Khan’s release from jail is linked to former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s assent.

    Appearing on Samaa’s programme Nadeem Malik Live, Marwat stated, “Imran Khan’s release from jail is not possible until Nawaz Sharif agrees to it.”

    Commenting on former first lady Bushra Bibi’s arrival in Peshawar, Marwat clarified that she went to Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s capital to avoid harassment and illegal arrest.

    “Bushra Bibi ka ghar yaha hai laikin chaddar or Chaar diwaari ka taqaddus hai hi nahi yaha and Qanoon ki pamali roz ka mamool hai,” Marwat further added.

    He also declared Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Barrister Gohar Ali Khan the most loyal companion of ex-premier Imran Khan.

    Imran Khan has been sentenced to 14 years and three years in two separate cases of illegally selling state-owned gifts for personal gain. A High Court suspended his sentence; however, since then, multiple new cases have been filed against Imran Khan and other party leaders after a protest at D Chowk in Islamabad on October 4.

    The gift included seven watches and diamond jewellery; six of them were Rolex watches.

    Imran Khan had been given ten years imprisonment for leaking a state secret cable to the public. The Islamabad High Court also overturned the sentence in June of this year.

    Khan was of the view that cable was evidence of a conspiracy by the Pakistani establishment and the United States (US) government to topple his government in 2022 following his visit to Moscow.

    A day after Khan’s landed in Moscow, Russia launched an attack on Ukraine in 2022.

    Meanwhile, Bushra Bibi, wife of founder PTI Imran Khan, was granted bail in the ToshaKhana case on Thursday, ending a nine-month long imprisonment.

    Justice Miangul Hassan Aurangzeb of Islamabad High Court, while hearing her plea, she stated, “The instant petition is accepted, and the petitioner is admitted to post-arrest bail subject to her furnishing bail bonds in the sum of Rs10,00,000/—with two sureties in the like amount to the satisfaction of the learned trial Court.”

    Bushra Bibi, along with her husband, Imran Khan, was arrested by the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) on allegations of selling a Bulgari jewellery set received from Saudi Arabia and failing to submit the set in Toshakhana.

    According to FIA, the items are worth Rs 71.5 million, but the accused got it valued at Rs 5.8 million from a private firm, Business Recorder reported.
