PTI, reacting to the development held: “Complete destruction of every existing law in Pakistan in 2 days. Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi have faced yet another kangaroo trial in which no right to defense was given to both. Like cipher, this case has no basis to stand in any High court. It is shameful…”
“Big question mark arise on our judicial system now. How the cipher and Tosha Khana case were conducted have exposed a complete disregard of law by trial court.
We will appeal against this decision in the High Court & continue our legal battle. We should harness and channel these energies for the polling day on 8th February 2024 by ensuring a massive voter turnout –@OmarAyubKhan#ناانصافی_کا_بدلہ_ووٹ_سے https://t.co/NCqtOiNlrb
