Imran Khan’s legal troubles: 62 cases reported in IHC

The Islamabad High Court (IHC) was briefed on the ongoing legal cases against Imran Khan, the founder of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party.

The police revealed that there are 62 registered cases against Imran Khan in the capital, with additional inquiries taking place at the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), Express News reported.

During the hearing, Justice Arbab Mohammad Tahir of the IHC reviewed the details of the cases, and the Islamabad police requested more time to submit the full report.

DSP Legal informed the court that the police had only received the notice the evening before and requested an extension.

The court, however, noted that the notice had been issued earlier.

Islamabad’s police spokesperson, DSP Sajjid Cheema, informed the court that there were 62 cases registered against Imran Khan in Islamabad. He proposed submitting an interim report, to which Justice Tahir urged the police to provide a detailed report instead.

The FIA also presented its report on the cases involving Imran Khan, revealing that seven FIRs (First Information Reports) and multiple inquiries have been initiated against him.

Furthermore, the government’s lawyer clarified that there were no pending inquiries against Khan at the District Collector's office.

The court adjourned the hearing until November 18, giving the authorities time to provide the requested detailed report.

Earlier today, a special court in Islamabad has rejected acquittal pleas from former Prime Minister Imran Khan and his wife, Bushra Bibi, in the Toshakhana 2.0 case, where both face charges of alleged misuse of government gifts.

Special Judge Central Shahrukh Arjumand announced the verdict, with formal charges expected to be framed on 18 November.

Imran Khan attended the court proceedings, while Bushra Bibi was notably absent.

The hearing had previously been postponed to 14 November due to the judge’s unavailability on 12 November, the original date set for the decision.
