Central appeal of Tosha Khana criminal case scheduled for hearing in Islamabad High Court.
Today marks 90 days since Chairman Tehreek-e-Insaf and former Prime Minister Imran Khan was unlawfully imprisoned. Imran Khan was arrested on August 5 following an unconstitutional verdict in the Tosha Khana case. Chief Justice of Islamabad High Court, Justice Aamer Farooq, had to grant bail to Imran Khan in the Tosha Khana case due to a weak decision, but he delayed the main appeal for several weeks. Upon Imran Khan's lawyer's request, this appeal is now scheduled for hearing in the Islamabad High Court on November 7. Notices have been issued to all parties involved.

Chairman Imran Khan's lawyer, Naeem Haider Panjutha, tweeted, "In the meeting with Imran Khan yesterday, he was concerned about the atrocities on Muslims in Palestine, arrests of innocent people in Pakistan, forced press conferences, abductions, violations of fundamental rights and illegality. His morale was high. The JIT team answered all the questions before us. They asked questions in 10 cases. Imran Khan's blunt answer was that peaceful protest is the right of every citizen, and the way they broke the glass and took me away, people came out for a peaceful protest. I never said to burn houses, nor was it ever our manifesto. A judicial commission should conduct an independent investigation because the police are both making the cases and deciding the outcomes. We demand to be heard, ensuring that the genuine facts come to light!

I pray to God that Pakistan becomes a country where the dignity of women is upheld, and where everyone has the right to freedom. May the darkness end soon and the bright morning come. Tayyaba, along with others, faces consequences for standing steadfast in loyalty and conscience to Imran Khan.

Prosecutor of Punjab government, Brigadier Mussadiq Abbasi's reveals shocking facts.
Brigadier Mussadiq Abbasi was the public prosecutor of the Punjab government at the time of the November 3 tragedy, and he was a part of the entire investigation. He revealed in a daily talk show, "There were three shooters in the assassination attack on Imran Khan. It was not the intention to kill Moazzam Shaheed. That bullet was for Naveed. Suspicions increased when General Naseer's name was not included in the FIR. The police fully supported this attack. None of the police, IB, or ISI helped us. We have to do the investigation properly. The phone on which the confession of accused Naveed was recorded was also not sent for forensics. The incident took place at 4:16 PM, and the accused reached Lahore at 1:30 PM. No one knows where he was all this time. There is a lot of sadness and anger in the hearts of the people regarding the institution, and it will be resolved only when all the institutions work within the limits of the constitution and law".
