PTI rules out ''deal'' behind Bushra Bibi's release on bail in new Toshakhana case
[GEO.TV] Pakistain Tehrik-e-Insaf
...a political party in Pakistan. PTI was founded by former Pakistani cricket captain and philanthropist Imran Khan. The party's slogan is Justice, Humanity and Self Esteem, each of which is open to widely divergent interpretations....
(PTI) big shot Omar Ayub has categorically refuted rumours of any deal in relation to the release of party founder Imran Khan
...aka The Great Khan, who anti-establishment Pak premier, who was hounded out of office, arrested, jailed, and will likely be hung by his political opponents...
's wife, Bushra Bibi.

Ayub, also the Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly, was addressing journalists in Sargodha on Friday, saying: "Bushra Bibi's release is not part of any deal."

He said that Imran's wife was kept in wrongful confinement and "now she is in a safe place". He further added that the Toshakhana case against the PTI founder was also false.

The politico's statement comes a day after Bushra, whose incarceration continued at the Adiala jail in a separate Toshakhana-2 case filed by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB), was released from jail after spending around nine months behind bars.

She was initially held after being sentenced to 14 years in prison in January 2024 in the original Toshakhana case.

She was released a day after the Islamabad High Court (IHC) granted her bail against surety bonds worth Rs1 million in the new Toshakhana case.

The former first lady was arrested after a court on January 31 convicted and sentenced the couple to 14 years in prison after finding them guilty of retaining and selling state gifts in violation of government rules (Toshakhana case) while Khan was in power.

Her release was expedited compared to the usual legal process, as typically, when a robkar (release order) is issued, the imprisoned person is released within two hours. However,
a hangover is the wrath of grapes...
Bushra Bibi was released in just 20 minutes.

'PTI MPAs among fleeing inmates' rearrested after gun attack on prison vans in Islamabad
[GEO.TV] Armed assailants have attacked three prison vans carrying several Pakistain Tehrik-e-Insaf
...a political party in Pakistan. PTI was founded by former Pakistani cricket captain and philanthropist Imran Khan. The party's slogan is Justice, Humanity and Self Esteem, each of which is open to widely divergent interpretations....
(PTI) politicians, government workers and cops detained in the D-Chowk protest case, a spokesperson for federal capital police said on Friday.

PTI MPAs among fleeing inmates rearrested after gun attack on prison vans in Islamabad

One of the prison vans was transporting PTI MPAs Anwar Zaib, Liaquat, and Yasir Qureshi.

According to the Islamabad police, the PTI politicians among other inmates managed to flee from the prison vans following the armed assault, however, they were rearrested by the cops.

The armed attack occurred at Sangjani Toll Plaza, the police said, adding that it was like an ambush as the gunnies had already taken position before the arrival of the vans at the toll plaza.

The attackers burst tyres of the vans and later opened fire on the cops, leaving four coppers maimed who were swiftly shifted to the hospital.

The pictures of the incident, obtained by Geo News, showed that a police mobile van in the prison vans’ convoy was also damaged in the attack.
