ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) will hear appeals filed by PTI founder Imran Khan and his wife, Bushra Bibi, against their convictions in the £190m corruption case on Nov 10.

A division bench comprising Chief Justice Sardar Muhammad Sarfraz Dogar and Justice Muhammad Asif will hear the appeals, as the court granted Barrister Salman Safdar a final opportunity to commence his arguments.

Barrister Safdar had earlier objected to a lack of access to his incarcerated clients for being unable to proceed with the appeals. However, this objection is no longer relevant following his meeting with the couple.

In July, too, the court while granting a final adjournment to the counsel in the £190m case had warned him that no further delay would be tolerated and the appeals would be decided on the basis of available record. The case itself pertains to the Al-Qadir Trust settlement, in which NAB alleged the PTI founder and his wife obtained billions of rupees and land.
