Another reference filed against Imran Khan, Bushra Bibi

NAB files new Toshakhana reference against former prime minister and his wife

The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) on Tuesday filed a new reference in the Toshakhana case against Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan and his wife, Bushra Bibi.

The reference was submitted to an accountability court in Islamabad. The Registrar's Office has begun scrutinising the newly filed reference, which was submitted by Investigating Officer Mohsin Haroon and Case Officer Waqar Hassan.

The reference stems from a recent investigation conducted by NAB officials at Rawalpindi’s Adiala Jail, where both Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi were questioned regarding the Toshakhana case.

This development follows a court decision yesterday that remanded the PTI founder and Bushra Bibi into judicial custody. The couple is under scrutiny for alleged misuse of gifts received from foreign dignitaries during their time in office.

On July 13, the couple was acquitted in the Iddat case, however, PTI's relief was short-lived as the accountability watchdog arrested the PTI supremo and his wife in a new Toshakhana reference.

In the new NAB reference, the couple is accused of purchasing a jewelry set from the Toshakhana and selling it. The set is valued at Rs75 million.
