The district and sessions court in Islamabad rejected three interim bail requests submitted by PTI founder Imran Khan’s wife Bushra Bibi on Monday.

Additional Sessions Judge Muhammad Afzal Majoka rejected the pleas after the suspect failed to submit surety bonds.

Prosecutor Iqbal Kakar opposed the request, pointing out that bail surety bonds had not been submitted.

At the outset of the hearings, Bibi’s attorney, Khalid Yousuf Chaudhry, submitted a request for exemption, stating that she needed to be present at Adiala Jail for the verdict related to the £190 million case.

Bushra is facing three cases filed in connection with the November 26 protests. Two were lodged at Tarnol Police Station and one at Ramna Police Station, which also registered a separate case regarding the D-Chowk protests.

In a separate case in Islamabad’s district and sessions court, Bibi’s counsel, Ansar Kayani, stated her required presence at the Adiala Jail for the accountability court’s directive.

Prosecutor Kakar maintained that Bibi’s attendance must be ensured as her request concerned interim bail.

Additional Sessions Judge Aamir Zia reserved the verdict on the bail plea in the matter.
