LAHORE – The Lahore High Court on Thursday dismissed a petition filed by former Prime Minister Imran Imran Khan, seeking protective bail in a case related to protests outside the office of the country’s electoral watchdog.
The court dismissed the petition filed by the PTI chief as he failed to appear before the court within the given time.
Earlier in the day, the court pointed out different signatures of Imran Khan on the affidavit and power of attorney submitted in the court, a day after cricketer turned politician moved Lahore High Court seeking protective bail in a case registered against him over a protest outside ECP.
The recent development comes on the heels of the anti-terrorism court’s verdict as the former PM failed to appear and sought exemption on medical grounds.
