Imran Khan Gets Bail in Military Installation Attack Cases, To be in Jail as Convicted in Other Cases

Former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan was granted bail in 12 cases linked to the May 9 attacks on military installations by an anti-terrorism court (ATC) on Saturday.

But Imran Khan will not be released from jail as he is convicted in many other cases.

This bail order coincided with the win of around 100 independent candidates backed by Imran Khan’s PTI in the elections for the Pakistan National Assembly.

Former foreign minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi was also granted bail in 13 cases in the same case.

The cases registered against them in Rawalpindi included the attack on the gate of General Headquarters (GHQ), rioting in the office of a sensitive institution and others.
