Imran summoned by Islamabad court in ‘illegal’ Nikah case

Imran Khan along with his spouse Bushra Bibi should be produced in court on September 25, says judge.

ISLAMABAD: A court in Islamabad has ordered production of jailed PTI chairman and former prime minister Imran Khan in a pending case filed against him for contacting marriage with Bushra Bibi against the Islamic law. 

Qudratullah, a civil judge in the district and sessions court in the federal capital, ordered that Khan along with his spouse should be produced in the court on September 25.

While hearing the illegal marriage case, the court a few days ago had issued notices to Imran and his wife.

However, counsel for the couple Naeem Panjotha had contended that Bushra Bibi has already been exempted from personal appearance in the court.

The judge however maintained that she would have to appear in court at the time of indicting the defenders.

The court also ordered issuance of transit order to the management of Attock district jail where Imran is languishing a three-year sentence in the Toshakhana case.
