Imran, Bushra 'arrested' in new Toshakhana reference after acquittal in iddat case

(PTI) 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...
and his wife Bushra Bibi have refused to die down as the couple have been arrested in new National Accountability Bureau (NAB) reference related to Toshakhana gifts, Geo News reported citing sources on Saturday.

The development came hours after a district and sessions court in Islamabad acquitted the former premier and his spouse in the iddat case — also known as the un-Islamic nikah case — which was the last hurdle in the couple's release from jail.

The court accepted the couple's pleas seeking annulment of their conviction in the iddat case. Additional Sessions Judge Muhammad Afzal Majoka announced short order reserved earlier in the day.

Khan and Bushra were sentenced to seven years in prison and awarded a fine of Rs500,000 each, in February earlier this year after a trial court found their nikah to be fraudulent as Khawar Maneka, Bushra's ex-husband, moved the court against the couple's marriage.
