    ‘New Tosha Khana case over after SC restores NAB amendments,’ says Imran Khan

    Founder of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Imran Khan has said that the new Tosha Khana case is over now, after the Supreme Court’s verdict on the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) amendments was released.

    Speaking to journalists at Adiala jail, the former Prime Minister said that he should be joyful, hinting at the closure of the Al Qadir trust case, too.

    “Public representatives did corruption, then passed laws to finish their cases,” he remarked.

    He said that some people are plotting against incumbent Chief Minister (CM) Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Ali Amin Gandapur, and Khan advised his party not to undermine Gandapur: “Those who are plotting against CM KP shouldn’t complain if they don’t get a party ticket later,” Khan said.

    Commenting on the August 5 Director General (DG) Inter Service Public Relations (ISPR) press conference, Khan said that if the army announces its apolitical stance, it is good for the country.

    He further stated that former Chief Of Army Staff (COAS) General (retd) Qamar Javed Bajwa should also be sue along with former spymaster General Faiz Hameed in military court.

    Court rejects Khan’s bail petition in May 9 cases

    An anti-terrorism court has turned down the bail petition of incarcerated former Prime Minister Imran Khan in three cases related to the May 9 violent protests, GEO News reported on Tuesday.

    Judge Khalid Arshad of Lahore ATC announced the reserved verdict after hearing Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) founder bail pleas in the May 9 violent protest cases.

    The riots occurred last year after Imran Khan was arrested in a corruption case.

    Several PTI supporters attacked multiple state buildings, including Jinnah House Lahore and GHQ Pakistan Army Rawalpindi.

    The incarcerated former Prime Minister was ousted from office through a no-confidence motion in April 2022, and currently, he is in Adiala jail facing corruption and terrorism cases.  
     
    Imran Khan also secured relief in multiple cases, including a £190 million reference and the Toshakhan case. However, he will remain behind bars due to his conviction in the Iddat case.
