The Islamabad High Court on Wednesday warned Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan that his interim bail in nine different cases would be cancelled if he failed to appear in court today (Thursday).
IHC Chief Justice Aamer Farooq heard Khan’s bail pleas in two different cases related to threatening officers of the armed forces and the attempted murder of Pakistan Muslim League-N leader Mohsin Shahnawaz Ranjha.
During the hearing, the IHC chief justice observed that the law was very clear and equal for all. There was no precedent of exemption from appearance during hearings in a bail petition, Justice Farooq remarked.
“Even if the PTI chairman was granted the exemption, how would his refusal to become part of the investigation be dealt with?” he asked.
