ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has admitted the post-arrest bail plea of Bushra Bibi, former first lady and wife of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan, in the new Toshakhana case here on Wednesday.
Bushra Bibi’s bail plea was accepted against Rs1 million surety bonds during the hearing conducted by Justice Miangul Hassan Aurangzeb.
The PTI founder’s wife had moved the IHC on October 3 seeking bail in the jewellery set case.
The petition, filed via Advocate Yousaf Chaudhry, contended that the petitioner was a housewife and the allegations against her were baseless.
It added that the investigation was not transparent and the case was aimed at keeping the petitioner in jail. It said that the same case was being run with different angles.
Previously, a trial court had terminated the post-arrest bail of the former first lady on September 30.
