(PTI) Chairman Imran Khan
 ...aka The Great Khan , who ain't the sharpest bulb on the national tree...
's sentence awarded to him in the Toshakhana case but his conviction and disqualification remain intact until the court decides on the main appeal.
The IHC announced the short verdict that it reserved a day earlier wherein it directed the authorities to release the PTI chief on bail.
The court directed the PTI chief to submit a surety bond of Rs100,000 against the bail.
Member of PTI's legal team Barrister Gohar said that the surety bonds worth Rs100,000 against Khan's bail have been prepared as per the court's directives, and will be submitted after acquisition of the court order's copy.
The verdict comes as a major legal victory for Khan who had challenged his conviction and sentence awarded to him in the Toshakhana case.
IHC issues written verdict
In its much-anticipated eight-page written verdict, a two-member bench of the IHC comprising Chief Justice Aamer Farooq and Justice Tariq Mehmood Jahangiri suspended PTI Chairman Imran Khan’s three-years sentence in the Toshakhana case and ordered his release against surety bonds worth Rs100,000.
"The instant application is allowed and the sentence awarded by the trial court vide judgment dated 5/8/2023 is suspended, consequently, the applicant is ordered to be released on bail in the instant matter subject to furnishing bail bonds in the sum of Rs100,000 with one surety in the like amount to the satisfaction the deputy registrar (judicial) of this court," read the order.
