LAHORE: Bushra Bibi, the wife of former prime minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan — on Tuesday filed a petition in the Lahore High Court — seeking a blanket cover in all cases registered against her across the country.
The move came amid the ongoing crackdown against the party leadership following May 9 attacks on civil and military installations, a day the army dubbed as “Black Day”. In her petition, the former first lady feared she could be arrested in any case and sought details of all the disclosed and undisclosed cases registered against her in the country.
The ex-prime minister’s wife pleaded with the court to issue an order restraining the police and law enforcers from arresting her in any undisclosed case. She made federal and provincial governments, IGs, FIA and other bodies parties in her case.
It is pertinent to mention here that the National Accountability Bureau (NAB), Rawalpindi, had summoned the ex-first lady on Wednesday (today) to record her statement as a trustee of the Al-Qadir University Trust in the £190 million National Crime Agency (NCA) UK settlement case. –Agencies
