Judge Afzal Majuka pronounced the verdict on the appeals of Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi in the Iddat case, accepting their appeals against their sentences.
The Islamabad court’s decision to accept the appeals of former Prime Minister Imran Khan and his wife, Bushra Bibi, has drawn significant attention. This development comes in the wake of their conviction in the controversial Iddat Nikah case.
Before the verdict was announced, the courtroom was filled with journalists, lawyers, and supporters. Due to the high-profile nature of the case, PTI workers had to be escorted out of the courtroom by the police. Meanwhile, journalists and lawyers were instructed by the police to remain in the courtroom to maintain order.
The acceptance of the appeals marks a pivotal moment in the case, as both Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi had contested the legality of their sentences. The Iddat case, which revolves around the period a Muslim woman must observe after divorce or the death of her husband before she can remarry, has been a contentious issue and has garnered widespread public and media interest.
Further details on the implications of this verdict and the next legal steps for Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi are awaited.
