The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has initiated a fresh inquiry into the Toshakhana case, issuing call-up notices to the founder of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and Bushra Bibi, Aaj News learnt on Wednesday.

NAB Rawalpindi has sent a letter to the Deputy Superintendent of Adiala Jail, requesting their presence for the investigation. The notices, issued by NAB, require both individuals to appear before the bureau on April 16th, sources told Aaj News.

This development signifies a renewed focus on the Toshakhana case, which revolves around allegations of misappropriation of gifts received from foreign dignitaries.

Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi have already faced two separted cases invovling the Toshakhana or state gift repository. The couple was setenced to 14 year prison terms in one of the cases, but the Islamabad High Court suspended the sentences in April.

The sentences were announced in January 2024.
