The Islamabad High Court approves the transfer of the Iddat case to a different court following concerns raised by Khawar Maneka. Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi await the verdict on their appeals amidst courtroom chaos and a delay in the announcement.

The Islamabad High Court (IHC) recently approved the request made by Sessions Court Judge Shahrukh Arjumand to move the Iddat case to a different court. This decision followed complaints from Khawar Maneka, the ex-husband of Bushra Bibi, who expressed doubts about Judge Arjumand's impartiality. Maneka's concerns led to the judge requesting the case transfer, citing previous attempts to delay proceedings by Maneka and his lawyer.

During a tense court session, Khawar Maneka verbally criticized Imran Khan, resulting in a physical altercation involving PTI supporters, including lawyers. In a separate development, Senior Civil Judge Qudratullah sentenced former Prime Minister Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi to seven years in prison for allegedly marrying during the Iddat period, as claimed by Bibi's first husband, Khawar Maneka.

Amidst the courtroom chaos, PTI lawmakers accused a deliberate delay in announcing the verdict in the Iddat case involving Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi. An appellate court has since reserved its decision on the couple's appeals, with the final verdict set to be disclosed on May 29.

The ongoing legal saga surrounding the Iddat case has captured public attention due to its high-profile nature. As the judicial process unfolds, the outcome of the appeals filed by Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi remains eagerly anticipated. Stay tuned for further updates on this developing story.
