Islamabad court extends Imran Khan’s interim bail in prohibited funding case
ISLAMABAD (MNP) – A banking court in the federal capital on Thursday extended interim bail of PTI Chairman Imran Khan in the prohibited funding case till Jan 31.
Banking court judge Rakhshanda Shaheen announced the verdict reserved earlier in the day after hearing arguments from Imran Khan’s lawyer and special prosecutor Rizwan Abbasi.
The court also exempted the PTI chief from appearing in the case till next hearing while a plea seeking permission to interrogate Imran Khan at his Zaman Park residence in Lahore had been turned down. The banking court ordered the former premier to appear before the investigation officer in the case to join the probe. The judge also remarked why it should not withdraw the decision of granting interim bail to Mr Khan if he failed to join the investigation.
