The lawyers of Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) presented arguments against the biased decision of Judge Humyoun Dilawar. Lawyer Khawaja Haris revealed that the judge issued a verdict without listening to me and prevented my secretary from entering the court, even though all evidence is before the court. Khawaja Haris requested the immediate release of Imran Khan and suspension of the sentence, stating, 'If you are going to suspend the sentence even after 6 months, why should Imran Khan remain in prison for even a single day?' Chief Justice Aamer Farooq rejected the immediate suspension of the sentence and quick hearing request, stating that I am unwell and cannot hold court tomorrow.
