Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan has reportedly decided to appear in the Lahore High Court (LHC) today in a case pertaining to protests outside the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP), sources said on Sunday.
As per sources, the party has also approached the LHC for security clearance for Imran and PTI leader Shibli Faraz has submitted an application regarding the issue to Administrative Judge Abid Aziz Shaikh.
A request was made in the application that in view of the threats to the former prime minister’s life, security clearance should be issued before his appearance.
The PTI chairman will appear in the LHC after receiving security clearance from the administrative judge.
Imran’s decision to appear in the court comes days after one of his protective bails was dismissed as “non-prosecution” despite promises that the ex-PM would appear before the court, while the second was adjourned till February 20 after the party furnished an assurance regarding his appearance.
