IHC adjourns PTI founder's bail plea in 190mn pounds reference
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – The Islamabad High Court has adjourned the hearing of PTI founder's bail plea in the 190 million pounds reference until May 13.
A two-member bench, headed by IHC Chief Justice Aamer Farooq, conducted the proceedings.
Sardar Latif Khosa, who represented the PTI founder, and National Accountability Bureau (NAB) prosecutor Amjad Parvez appeared before the court.
At the outset of the proceedings, the NAB prosecutor requested the court to adjourn the hearing in view of the strike called by the legal fraternity across the country.
At this, the chief justice remarked that what happened in Lahore on Wednesday was deplorable. But, he added, the court could not endorse protests.
Later, the court adjourned the hearing on PTI founder's bail application until May 13 (Monday).
NAB prosecutor Amjad Pervez will advance his arguments on next hearing.
