ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan’s wife, Bushra Bibi’s, interim bail pleas were rejected in the three cases related to the November 26 protests.

Additional Sessions Judge Muhammad Afzal Mujoka presided over the hearing.

During the hearing, Prosecutor Iqbal Kakhar and Bushra Bibi’s counsel Khalid Yousaf Chaudhry appeared in court.

Bibi’s lawyer filed an exemption plea citing her required presence at Adiala Jail for the £190 million reference verdict.

Prosecutor Iqbal Kakhar opposed the plea, arguing that the bail bonds had not been submitted.

“You have not complied with the court’s directive,” remarked the judge, who then rejected three interim bail petitions.

Bushra is facing three cases filed in connection with the November 26 protests.

Two were lodged at Tarnol Police Station and one at Ramna Police Station, which also registered a separate case regarding the D-Chowk protests.
