Cipher Case: Imran Khan Challenges Special Court Order
In his second application to the Pakistan Supreme Court, the former leader urged it to dismiss the case, which he claims is politically motivated.
Former Pakistan prime minister and chief of Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Imran Khan has challenged his special court indictment in the cipher case in the country's highest court, reports have said.
He approached the
supreme court through his counsel Hamid Khan and urged the top court to declare the
Islamabad High Court’s (IHC) decision on the matter illegal. Khan has also urged the court to declare the special court hearing in case against the constitution and law.
Contesting before the top court that he was a political victim, the ousted premier alleged that the state machinery is being used to frame fake cases against him.
It was his second petition in the supreme court in connection with the cipher case, the reports said.
Last week, Khan had filed a plea in the
Supreme Court seeking post-arrest bail in the cipher case.
Khan and his deputy Shah Mahmood Qureshi were indicted by a special court, formed under the Official Secrets Act, on October 23.
Both the PTI leaders were indicted after they had moved a petition under CrPC 265-D to stop the indictment. The judge while rejecting the petitions stated that the hearing was fixed for indictment and went ahead with it.
He got into the controversy on March 27, 2022 while addressing a public rally and waved a letter before the crowd, claiming that it was a cipher from a foreign nation that had conspired with his political rivals to have the PTI government overthrown.
