PTI founder Imran Khan has refused to appear before the court in the GHQ attack case. The hearing was conducted inside Adiala Jail by Rawalpindi’s Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) Judge Amjad Ali Shah.

Imran Khan’s lawyer, Faisal Malik, appeared in court along with his legal team, while Special Prosecutor Zaheer Shah was also present. Before the proceedings began, the judge informed the defense counsel that the jail trial had been reinstated.

According to court sources, the jail administration sent messages to Imran Khan three times, requesting his appearance before the court. However, the PTI founder declined to attend, citing ill health.

The hearing was scheduled to mark Imran Khan’s attendance in the GHQ attack case. Both the prosecution team and the defense lawyers waited for nearly one hour and forty minutes.
