The Islamabad High Court has granted bail to PTI founder Imran Khan in the Toshakhana Two case and ordered his release. The court approved his bail against two surety bonds of Rs 1 million each and instructed him to appear before the trial court for further proceedings.
During the hearing, the prosecutor argued that delaying tactics had been used to avoid the indictment. He also highlighted that the undervaluation of gifts caused financial losses to the state. Despite these arguments, the court decided in favor of granting bail.
Justice Gul Hassan Aurangzeb addressed concerns about transparency during the proceedings. He dismissed speculation in the media, stating that the court had followed proper legal procedures.
The Toshakhana case revolves around allegations that Imran Khan undervalued and misused state gifts while serving in public office. The case has attracted significant attention, adding to the ongoing legal challenges faced by the former Prime Minister.
Imran Khan’s legal team welcomed the decision, calling it a victory for justice. They assured the court of his compliance with future legal requirements. This development comes amidst heightened political tension in the country, as PTI supporters view the bail as a positive step, while critics demand accountability.
The trial court is now expected to continue hearing the case, as questions about the misuse of state assets remain under scrutiny. Imran Khan’s release marks a key moment in the legal and political battle surrounding the Toshakhana case.
