An investigation report reveals Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi's involvement in the unauthorized sale of valuable gifts, leading to legal implications and a new inquiry by NAB. The case underscores the importance of transparency and accountability in handling state gifts.

An investigation report has shed light on another case involving the ex-prime minister and imprisoned PTI founder, Imran Khan, and his wife Bushra Bibi. This case revolves around the possession and sale of 10 valuable gifts worth millions of rupees, including seven watches and sets of gold and diamond jewelry. The gifts were sold without proper reporting and submission to the Toshakhana, the state gift repository, leading to legal implications for the couple.

The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has launched a new inquiry into the Toshakhana case, issuing call-up notices to Khan and Bushra. The investigation focuses on the unauthorized sale of items such as a Graff watch valued at approximately Rs101 million. The sale was conducted without proper registration and undervalued, resulting in a violation of the law.

Imran Khan, who was initially sentenced to 14 years in prison in connection with the Toshakhana case, has denied any wrongdoing, claiming that the gifts were tokens of appreciation. However, the recent revelations have added to the series of scandals surrounding the former prime minister, who continues to face allegations of corruption and abuse of power during his tenure.

The latest developments in the Toshakhana case highlight the importance of transparency and accountability in handling state gifts. As the investigation unfolds, it underscores the need for public officials to adhere to legal protocols and ethical standards to maintain public trust and integrity.
