The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has scheduled a hearing for March 11, 2026, regarding the sentence suspension petitions filed by former Prime Minister Imran Khan and his wife, Bushra Bibi, in the Al-Qadir Trust case, which involves allegations of corruption linked to £190 million. The court's decision comes after multiple requests for an expedited hearing, with Barrister Salman Safdar representing the couple stating, "I filed applications for an early hearing five times. It is on the fifth attempt that I have been allowed to present the request before the court." The IHC had previously sentenced Khan to 14 years and Bushra Bibi to 7 years in prison, a ruling that many, including Khan's legal team, argue is politically motivated and lacks substantial evidence of personal financial gain.
