PTI Chairman’s lawyer requested for adjournment of the hearing on Imran Khan’s defamation petition against Federal Defense Minister Khawaja Asif.
A defamation case was heard on the petition filed by Imran Khan against Khawaja Asif in the District and Sessions Court of Islamabad.
The lawyers of the parties appeared in the court of Additional Sessions Judge Islamabad.
Imran Khan’s lawyer pleaded for adjournment of the hearing and took the stand that Imran Khan could not be contacted due to Jail Bharu movement.
The lawyer said that Asad Umar and others were released in the Jail Bharu movement last evening.
The court adjourned the hearing of the case till March 18.
The judge remarked that the hearing was adjourned but there should not be too much delay.
It should be noted that Khawaja Asif accused Imran Khan of non-transparency in the Shaukat Khanum Hospital fund, on which he filed a claim of 10 billion rupees against Khawaja Asif.
