This directive comes in response to Bushra Bibi’s plea seeking a transfer from Bani Gala sub-jail to Adiala Jail. Additionally, the court invalidated the notification designating Bani Gala as a sub-jail. Last week, the Islamabad High Court reserved its decision on Bushra Bibi’s request for relocation to Adiala Jail from the Bani Gala sub-jail.

Justice Miangul Hasan Aurangzeb expressed skepticism, suggesting that the decision to relocate Bushra Bibi to Bani Gala may have been predetermined. He questioned the conversion of a prisoner’s property into a sub-jail without their consent.
In her petition, Bushra Bibi cited safety concerns and requested the court to transfer her due to feeling unsafe while confined alone in the sub-jail.
Both Bushra and Imran Khan were sentenced to 14 years in jail by Judge Muhammad Bashir of the accountability court in connection with a case involving the illegal sale of state gifts from Toshakhana.
During the trial, Imran Khan contended that his wife was not implicated in the case and was unjustly accused.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
