Islamabad High Court adjourned proceedings in the Tyrian White case till March 1 after Imran Khan asked for time to submit more documents.

Imran Khan’s lawyer, Salman Akram Raja, said that apart from Imran Khan needing more time to submit documents, he himslef would not be able to appear in court from February 21 to 27.

The case accuses of Imran Khan of non-declaration of his alleged daughter. The case has been filed by a citizen Muhammad Sajid, asking for Imran Khan to be disqualified. The court is still hearing arguments on whether the case is admissible or not.

The court constituted a larger bench to hear the case on February 7.

Speaking outside the court after the hearing, PML-N leader Atta Tarrar said that the case is not about Tyrian White but whether a political leader is fit for public office. He said that if issues with a politician’s degree could get him disqualified, then Imran Khan’s crime was much bigger.

He also said that Imran Khan was trying to get relief in the case on a technical basis and had used the same delaying tactics in the foreign funding case as well.
