ISLAMABAD: A banking court in the federal capital summoned Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan in the prohibited funding case.
Special Judge Rakhshanda Shaheen ordered the former premier to appear before the court on Feb 28. During the hearing, the legal team of the PTI chief submitted a copy of the Islamabad High Court’s (IHC) order.
In the light of the IHC order, the judge has summoned Mr Khan in personal capacity next week to attend hearing in the case.
A criminal case, which is being probed by the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), was registered against Imran Khan after a fact-finding report of the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) found irregularities in the party funds in August last. Later, the ECP sent the case to the FIA for further investigation.
