Islamabad, January 10, 2025 – Special Central Judge Shah Rukh Arjumand on Friday expressed strong displeasure over the absence of former First Lady Bushra Bibi and her lawyer during the hearing of the Toshakhana-II case at Adiala Jail.
The case involves former Prime Minister Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi. Despite the absence of Bushra Bibi and her legal counsel, the court proceeded with the cross-examination of the fourth witness, Mohammad Ahad, Deputy Director of Coordination at the Cabinet Division. The cross-examination was conducted by PTI’s lawyer, Qausain Faisal Mufti. In addition, the testimony of another prosecution witness, Talat, was recorded.
The court directed Bushra Bibi’s lawyers to complete the cross-examination at the next hearing and warned that disciplinary action would be taken if they failed to comply.
Moreover, five more witnesses—Muhammad Shafqat, Qaiser, Umar Siddique, Mohsin, and Faheem—were summoned to appear before the court to record their statements.
The hearing was adjourned until January 14, 2025.
