Meanwhile, in a major legal victory for PTI, Chairman Imran Khan’s arrest in the Al-Qadir Trust case has been declared “illegal” by the Supreme Court on May 11, and authorities have been instructed to release him “immediately”.The apex court has sent the PTI chief to the Police Lines Guest House, allowing him to spend the night with his family.
The court has also ordered Imran Khan to appear before the Islamabad High Court (IHC) by tomorrow, which is the same court that previously declared his arrest to be legal.
