Supreme Court to hear Imran Khan’s post-arrest bail appeals tomorrow

ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court of Pakistan has fixed for hearing eight appeals filed by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan, seeking post-arrest bail in multiple May 9-related cases.

A two-member bench headed by Chief Justice Yahya Afridi and comprising Justice Muhammad Shafi Siddiqui will take up the matter tomorrow at 9:30am.

The former prime minister has knocked on the doors of the Supreme Court after the Lahore High Court turned down his bail pleas. The appeals have been filed through his counsel, Advocate Salman Safdar.

The PTI leader has been behind bars in connection with the violent protests that broke out across the country on May 9, following his arrest. He is now trying to secure his release through legal means, hoping for relief from the top court.

The top court’s decision is eagerly awaited and could be a game-changer in the ongoing legal battles faced by the PTI founder.
