According to information provided, Naeem Panjutha, the PTI founder’s attorney, came in court and submitted a request for Imran Khan’s acquittal.

Judicial Magistrate Sohaib Bilal asked whether the charges against Khan had been collected in the cases and how many cases there were against the PTI founder.

The court was informed by Naeem Panjutha that Imran Khan’s Tosha Khanna sentence is on hold and that the sentencing in the cases of cypher and illegal marriage are also pending.

The district and session courts heard the plea at this point and sent out notifications for the plea’s May 15 arguments.

In the May 9 violence case, bail was previously granted to Imran Khan and Shah Mehmood Qureshi. Judge Malik Ejaz of the Anti-Terrorism Court heard the bail requests of PTI founder Imran Khan and Shah Mehmood.

The former prime minister Imran Khan was given bail in 12 instances, while Shah Mehmood was granted bail in 13 cases, despite the prosecution’s persistent pleas to the court.

Violence on May 9

Following the arrest of the former prime minister Imran Khan on May 9, 2023, violent conflicts broke out throughout Pakistan.

Due to the party workers’ agitation over their chairman’s arrest, protests were staged in both major and distant cities. Balochistan, Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and Islamabad summoned the armed forces to maintain peace and order.

Workers from PTI had attacked Army posts, including the Corps Commander’s residence in Lahore, during the rallies.

It is important to note that the PTI founder is included as the primary culprit in every case involving the May 9 riots.

Approximately 450 Pakistanis, including 250 Zaireen, have successfully crossed into Lebanon from Syria, according to the spokesperson for the Foreign Office, Mumtaz Zahra Baloch.

During her weekly briefing at the foreign office in Islamabad, she stated that Pakistan is pleased with the resolution passed by the United Nations General Assembly on the Gaza Strip, which calls for an immediate ceasefire.

In addition, she expressed her satisfaction with the elimination of limits placed on UNRWA’s ability to carry out relief activities in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.

It was stated by her that Pakistan is demanding an immediate cessation of hostilities in Palestine, an end to the genocide that is taking place in Gaza, the protection of civilians and civilian infrastructure, unrestricted access to humanitarian aid for those who are in urgent need, full support for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) and its mandated humanitarian activities, and medical assistance for those who are in urgent need.

Moreover, she stated that Pakistan emphasises the need for the international community to hold Israel accountable for the war crimes and crimes against humanity that it has committed in occupied lands.

The Israeli aggression against Syria, the illegitimate acquisition of Syrian territory, and the massive devastation of Syrian infrastructure as well as civilian and military sites are all topics that Pakistan is extremely worried about, according to the spokesperson for Pakistan.

According to her, this attack on Syria’s sovereignty and territorial integrity is a serious violation of international law to the highest degree. By expressing our support for Syria’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, we are also expressing our opposition to the Israeli government’s attempt to acquire territory through coercion.

The resolution 497 of the United Nations Security Council, which declares the annexation of the Golan Heights by Israel to be null and illegal and to have no international legal impact, was reaffirmed by her organisation.
