Islamabad: PTI founder Imran Khan’s wife Bushra Bibi on Tuesday approached the Islamabad High Court (IHC), challenging the notification declaring her Banigala residence a sub-jail.
Bushra Bibi, in her petitioner, just like other political workers of the party, she is ready and willing to serve her sentence in the “Ordinary Jail Premises at Adiala Jail, rather than the declared sub-jail at her residence”.
The former first lady said she does not feel safe to be confined alone in the premises of the sub-jail due to the potential security issues and pleaded that she be moved to Adiala Jail.
Last week, Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi were sentenced to 14 years in jail in the Toshakhana reference. Two days later, the two were also convicted and given a seven-year sentence for “contracting marriage during the ‘Iddat’ (period of waiting)”.
