The Islamabad High Court has established a special bench to hear the appeals filed by the PTI founder in the Toshakhana and cipher cases.
Chief Justice Amer Farooq and Justice Miangul Hassan will hear the cases.
The registrar of the high court has scheduled the hearing of the PTI founder’s pleas on Monday.
PTI leader Shah Mahmood Qureshi’s appeal against the cipher case has also been slated for hearing on Monday, along with Bushra Bibi’s petition in the Toshakhana case.
The petitions filed by the PTI founder, Bushra Bibi, and Shah Mahmood Qureshi seeking release on bail will also be heard.
It may be recalled that a special court established under the Official Secrets Act and an accountability court had sentenced the PTI founder and his wife Bushra BIbi in the cipher and Toshakhana cases on Jan 30 and 31, respectively.
Also, on Jan 30, PTI founder’s close associate Shah Mahmood Qureshi was sentenced to 10-year rigorous imprisonment in the cipher case.
