On November 3 last year, the PTI Chairman was injured along with some 13 other people while one of his worker had lost his life when multiple shooters attacked his Long March convoy in Wazirabad. Khan had been struggling since then to recover from his wounds.
The government on Friday shifted the venue of the additional sessions court to a comparatively safer Judicial Complex for the hearing of the Toshakhana case against him.

It may be added here that Additional Sessions Judge Zafar Iqbal was set to frame charges against him on Feb 28, but his lawyer sought exemption from the hearing as he had to appear before other courts in the capital city. The judge had then issued non-bailable arrest warrants for the PTI chief, which remained valid till to date.
