Former prime minister and PTI chief Imran Khan has been presented at the Islamabad Police Lines, which has been given the status of a court venue as a “one-time dispensation”, a day after he was arrested from the premises of the Islamabad High Court in relation to the Al-Qadir Trust investigation by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB).
At the outset of the hearing, NAB requested the court to grant 14-day physical remand of Imran.
The PTI chairman’s lawyer opposed the request and said that the case did not fall within the bureau’s ambit. He further said that NAB had not shared the inquiry report either.
“Everyone has the right to a fair trial,” he said, calling for the hearing to be held in an open court.
Subsequently, DawnNewsTV reported that the hearing had been adjourned for a brief period.
When it resumed, the NAB prosecutor told the court that Imran was shown the warrant at the time of his arrest. He also assured Imran’s lawyer that the necessary documentation would be provided.
“This is a corruption case which the UK’s National Crime Agency has probed,” he said, adding that the money received was meant to be transferred to the government of Pakistan.
“Instead of the government, the funds that were received were transferred to Bahria Town,” he said.
Meanwhile, the PTI chief told the court that he was shown the arrest warrant when he was taken to the NAB office and not at the time of his arrest.
A late-night notification issued by the Islamabad commissioner’s office said the ex-prime minister would appear in two cases at the venue, where sources say he is being detained.
One of the cases is in relation to the Toshakhana, in which Imran’s indictment is pending. The other case, which relates to the Al-Qadir Trust, will be heard by an accountability judge.
DAWN
Funny how the UK crime agency probed the investigation into IK, but remain silent on the Shareefs and Zaradaris. It's all rigged, and in my opinion, Western agencies are text books of corruption.
Major uchul raha hay kay shukr hay Imran bhe corrupt hay..we all know its a bogus case..this whole thing is politically motivated..but i will say this again. A reckoning is coming. If these people think the qaum will accept the eunuch then you are mistaken.
With regards to the uk. They are hand in glove in this. IK is a threat to their geopolitical aims. Just like Erdoğan was. But the turk had more leverage.
Imran having chest pains since morning, says lawyer
PTI Chairman Imran Khan’s lawyer has said that the former prime minister was having chest pains since morning.
Talking to the media outside the accountability court in Islamabad, one of Imran’s lawyers said that he was among the PTI counsels who met the ex-premier before the hearing in the Al-Qadir Trust case.
Narrating his conversation with Imran, the lawyer said that the PTI chief was kept in a poor condition at the Islamabad Police Lines, where he was shifted at 3am last night, and was not given food or a bed to sleep on.
Uk govts investigation not even Pakistans. WHats a fact is a fact, you can turn blind to it if you want. If its a bogus case than tells you alot about the country you currently reside in.
If UK is invovled, come back to the pind and burn that passport.
May 10 (Reuters) - Britain is monitoring the situation in Pakistan carefully, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said on Wednesday, after the arrest of Pakistan's former Prime Minister Imran Khan sparked unrest.
"The arrest of the former prime minister is an internal matter for Pakistan. We support peaceful democratic processes and adherence to the rule of law and we are monitoring the situation carefully," Sunak told lawmakers.
Who is maqsood chaprasiHere we go..chest pains..like maqsood chaprasi..

No updates in the last two hours on social media.
Reports:
Pakistan's former Foreign Minister and senior leader of Imran Khan's PTI party Shah Mehmood Qureshi has been arrested,
So, as expected all the claims about torture, throwing Imran from the building, injecting him with toxins, etc. we're all lies told by the PTI supporters.
Its not like you will bother to read anything against your leader.
Heres the link

you may ignore it .
its not a mystery case, its just you lot are ignorant. This case has been out there for 2 years and when it came out i said it this will bring him down.
And you think they would have waited a year to arrest him if it had legs. Remember they lodged a 140 cases, and they were more desperate to get him on the Toshakhana case and guess what, they went pair shaped because NS,Nani and AZ stole the cars.
case was on going in NAB. The last NAB was a ******* and did not want to investigate it.
Cases investigate and take time4, he was eventually going to get arrested for it.
But i agree right now he was arrested for the statements he made, because he was arrested before he was made to appear in court.
But while his arrest is illegal, the case itself exists and isn't a bogus one.
PTI will whine about this case, but i think instead they should be making statements that if Imran is guilty in this case so is Malik Riaz.
You base this on what? Dr Rizwan, Maqsood Ch and others have been killed. Infact most of the people involved in the investigation of the TTs have been killed. Were they also lies?
The claim was about Imran.
The burden of proof lies on PTI supporters who spread all sorts of lies yesterday without any evidence. He was handed over to NAB today and nothing in his appearance suggests that he was subjected to torture.

A well known Saudi govt back social media guy, anyone who can read Urdu can read what he wrote in the tweet in Arabic and infer.
Vast majorities of Saudis in the comments are supporting his comment
I can imagine India or USA not wanting Imran Khan. But why do PTI supporters and Pakistanis never introspect on why the Saudis are so against Imran Khan ?
What motive could they have in ensuring Pakistan is ruled by PML/PPP and not PTI?
Is this even a question? The motive is simple, foreign politicians want a yes man! Amreeka, UK, Saudis, they all love yes men.
Jeez.

GB CM arrested! This is serious!
Aftab Iqbal now abducted from his residence. They are not going to let IK get bail so easily and abducting a guy like Aftab Iqbal who has pretty solid connections in establishment just suggests things are going to get worse now.
lol Aftab iqbal isnt some big thing.
Just a lota who used to praise PMLN all the time and than switched to kissing up Imran.
Now he can do two things..
Show up at high court Islamabad. But no point as they will still arrest him.
The second thing he can do is use his free time to give a speech and tell his supporters what to do next. I think this is what Imran should do. Screw the IHC, do a rally in the free tim he has and get them to do the biggest protest and burn down certain areas
And then lose the lone support of SC CJP forever, right ?
