RAWALPINDI: Following the accountability court’s ruling in the Toshakhana case, Bushra Bibi, the spouse of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan, turned herself in, according to ARY News.

This came about as a result of PTI founder Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi being fined Rs787 million and given 14 years in prison in the Toshakhana case by an Accountability Court (AC).

Following her conviction, Bushra Bibi went to the Adiala prison and turned herself in to the National Accountability Bureau (NAB), who had already arrived to take her into custody.

According to reports, the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) team was “constituted” to take former first lady Bushra Bibi into custody.

According to those with knowledge of the issue, the NAB team and a police team will depart to apprehend Bushra Bibi following the court’s comprehensive ruling.

The founder of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) was hauled before the court today, but Bushra Bibi did not show up.

The former prime minister said, “The statement is in the room; I was only called to appear before the court,” in response to a question regarding his 342 statement.

The judge said, “Don’t waste court time,” and ordered Imran Khan to provide his statement right now.

The PTI founder said, “The lawyers have not yet arrived; I will submit the statement after showing them,” and he exited the courtroom.

After the PTI head was disqualified by the Election Commission of Pakistan last year for making “false statements and incorrect declaration,” the Toshakhana matter became a significant political hotspot in the country.

It also occurs only one day after Imran and his foreign minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi were given ten years in prison for violating state secrets by a special court created under the Official Secrets Act.

The decision in the cypher case was declared by Special Court Judge Abual Hasnat Zulqarnain shortly after the two accused’s confessions under Section 342 were recorded during the Tuesday hearing.

The nomination of Ishaq Dar as deputy prime minister raises concerns.

A lot of doubts have been raised by Ishaq Dar, the foreign minister, being appointed deputy prime minister.

No reference to the Constitution, regulations, or any other law was mentioned in the Cabinet Division’s notification of the appointment.

What powers Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif used to designate Ishaq Dar as deputy prime minister has come under scrutiny in light of this.

There are questions about the legal foundation for the deputy prime minister’s nomination as it appears from the notification’s phrasing that rules for the position have not yet been established, according to insiders.

Likewise, the announcement is vague about the deputy prime minister’s proposed authority.

Deputy prime minister would be purely symbolic, according to government sources, and would not be authorized to carry out prime ministerial duties. In Pakistan, the deputy prime minister has previously been nominated.

The PPP administration appointed Chaudhry Parvez Elahi as deputy prime minister.

Observe that Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar was appointed deputy prime minister on Sunday with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s consent; the Cabinet Division formally announced the appointment.

Dar holds the position of Pakistan’s fourth deputy prime minister. Previous appointments to the position of deputy prime ministers included Parvez Elahi, Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, and Begum Nusrat Bhutto.

Ali Amin Gandapur, the chief minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, has threatened to storm Islamabad, according to Khawaja Saad Rafique, a former minister and leader of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N). This is a very serious situation.

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa administration has reportedly launched attacks on the federal capital in the past in an attempt to seize Islamabad, according to Saad Rafiq on the social media platform X (previously Twitter).

“However, PTI got nothing and it resulted in creating chaos, hatred and economic destruction,” he continued.

He added, “If the anarchists attack Islamabad to occupy it this time too, it will become impossible for them to return as rulers.”

According to the leader of the PML-N, fascist behavior will no longer be accepted, and the dirty politics of violence, fire, and ransacking will no longer be effective.

The PTI, he said, has to act rationally and refrain from inciting another May 9.
