ISLAMABAD: Bushra Bibi, the wife of Pakistan’s jailed former premier Imran Khan, was on Thursday released on bail nearly nine months after her arrest in the Toshakhana corruption case.
The release came a day after the Islamabad High Court judge, Justice Miangul Hassan Aurangzeb, accepted the bail plea of the 50-year-old former first lady against a surety bond of Rs 1 million.
Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party confirmed Bushra’s release in a WhatsApp message.
