Pakistan Election Commission’s Taskakhana Verdict
Police came to Imran Khan’s residence to arrest him in order to execute Tashakhana verdict.This case has been pending since October, when Election Commission of Pakistan had booked Imran Khan and announced Tashakhana Verdict in the aftermath of protests which had crippled Pakistan.
Imran Khan has been on bail on medical grounds after he had received gunshot injuries during a rally in Wazirabad last year.
Pakistan’s Anti-Terrorism Court’s Judge Raja Jawed had earlier stated that Imran Khan was given enough time to appear before the court but he had failed to do so. However Imran Khan’s lawyer argued and urged the court to grant him one – time exemption from in – person appearance as Khan had not recovered from Gun Shot.
However, an infuriated judge had refused to accept the plea from Imran Khan’s counsel and ordered that Imran Khan should appear before the court. Further stated that court does not give any relief to powerful person like Imran Khan , when it does not provide relief to a common person.
Judge also refused to extend the interim bail , leaving Imran Khan vulnerable to arrest by the police.
