Rawalpindi: A local court Tuesday indicted Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan and his wife, Bushra Bibi, in the Iddat case at the court set up in Rawalpindi’s Adiala Jail.
During today’s hearing, senior Civil Judge Qudratullah read out the charges in presence of Imran Khan.
However, Bushra Bibi was not present on the occasion which annoyed the judge as previous indictments were postponed because of her absence.
The development comes a day after the Islamabad High Court (IHC) reserved its verdict on Bushra’s plea seeking dismissal of her former husband Maneka’s case.
Maneka, in his petition, had termed Bushra and Imran’s nikkah “fraudulent” contending that the marriage was solemnised during her iddat — following her divorce with him.
He also accused the former prime minister of ruining his entire life with the petition stating that the Imran Khan “stigmatised the complainant and his family just to achieve his unethical and immoral objects through intrusion in the complainant’s peaceful marital life”.
