LAHORE -UNS: The Lahore High Court on Friday extended PTI Chairman Imran Khan’s protective bail in five cases, including two for “vandalism” at the Islamabad Judicial Complex and high court, till March 27.
The former premier had been granted protective bail in the five cases on March 17 when he secured protective bail in nine cases — the four others being in Lahore.
Today, a two-member bench comprising Justice Tariq Saleem Sheikh and Justice Anwaar Hussain heard Imran’s plea for an extension in his protective bail. Imran was represented by Barrister Salman Safdar.
As he arrived outside the court, Imran was asked by a reporter whether he thought the Election Commission of Pakistan’s deferral of the Punjab elections to October would be struck down by the Supreme Court.
The PTI posted a video of Imran’s Nissan SUV reaching the Lahore High Court as supporters and his security jogged beside the vehicle in the rain. Imran can be seen disembarking from his vehicle shortly after as his security detail shields him with Kevlar.
