ISLAMABAD. A local court has summoned former prime minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan in the illegal nikah case in next hearing on December 18.
The senior civil judge, Islamabad, has issued a written order of the hearing into the ‘illegal nikah’ of Imran and Bushra Bibi.
The one-page order released by Judge Qudrat Ullah stated that Bushra Bibi was granted a day exemption from court appearance and was asked to submit a surety bond of Rs50,000 to ensure her presence on the next hearing of the case.
Meanwhile, due to a technical fault, the PTI founder was unable to attend the hearing from the Adiala Jail on Skype.
The order directed the authorities concerned to ensure the video link presence of Imran at the next hearing on December 18.
The former prime minister married Bushra Bibi in February 2018 in Lahore.
The ceremony was attended by only close relatives, including the bride’s mother and friends. PTI founder’s sisters, however, were not in attendance. Mufti Saeed had performed the nikah in the presence of Aun Chaudhry and Zulfi Bukhari.
