The Court's decision brings relief for Imran Khan & his Supporters
ISLAMABAD: Pakistan's former Prime Minister and renowned cricketer, Imran Khan, has been acquitted of charges related to incitement to murder. The court's decision to dismiss the case comes as a notable relief for Khan and his supporters.
The case in question had originally led to the registration of an FIR against Imran Khan. However, this FIR has now been rejected by the court, marking a pivotal moment in the legal proceedings. Naeem Panjutha, the legal counsel representing Imran Khan, took to Twitter to share this information. In a tweet posted on Monday, Panjutha confirmed that the court had indeed cleared Imran Khan of the murder charges.
