PTI Chairman Imran Khan going to Lahore High Court from Zaman Park
The Lahore High Court (LHC) gave former prime minister Imran Khan last chance to appear before court by 5pm on Monday while hearing the PTI chief’s protective bail petition in a case pertaining to protests outside the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP).
Justice Tariq Saleem Sheikh passed these directives after Imran failed to meet the court’s order to appear in person by 2pm today.
On Feb 15, an Islamabad anti-terrorism court — on grounds of non-appearance — had rejected Imran’s request for an extension in his interim bail in a case pertaining to violent protests outside the ECP after it disqualified him in the Toshakhana case.
The PTI chief has been convalescing in his Zaman Park residence in Lahore ever since he was wounded in an assassination attempt during a pitstop his caravan made in Wazirabad while they were marching on Islamabad.
