Earlier, PTI Chairman Imran Khan was indicted in the Toshakhana case by the accountability court. The PTI Chairman, however, refuted the accusations and sought that the case be transferred to a different court, showing skepticism over the judge.
Imran Khan has been brought before an accountability court in Islamabad. He was charged in the Toshakhana case, which was heard at Sessions Court by Judge Humayun Dilawar.
The court rejected Imran Khan’s attorney’s bid to have the indictment delayed.
Imran Khan declined to acknowledge the accusation. He sought that the case be moved to a different court because he stated he didn’t trust the judge.
