An accountability court in Islamabad on Friday convicted Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan and his wife, Bushra Bibi, in the190 million pounds al-Qadir Trust case, Pakistani media reports. He was handed down a 14-year sentence, while his wife has been given a seven-year sentence.
Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi have also been slapped with heavy fines, as the PTI founder will have to pay PKR 1 million in fines and his wife has been asked to pay PKR 0.5 million.
The team of the National Accountability Bureau (NAB), led by Prosecutor General Sardar Muzaffar Abbasi, was also present at Adiala jail to attend the announcement of the much-awaited verdict by Judge Nasir Javed Rana.
Bushra Bibi, including Barristers Gohar Khan, Shoaib Shaheen, Salman Akram Raja, and other lawyers were also present at the jail.
After the announcement was made, Bushra was taken into custody, and sources reveal that her cell in the Adiala jail was already prepared.
The case involving Imran Khan and his wife revolves around allegations that an amount of PKR 50 billion, which was returned to Pakistan by the UK’s National Crime Agency as part of a settlement with a property tycoon, was misused.
