Judge Azam Khan of the District and Sessions Court Islamabad fixed the revised appeal for hearing after 7 days from today and issued attendance notices to Imran Khan and petitioner Muhammad Hanif for the hearing.
In the text of the revised appeal, the petitioner said that Bushra Bibi separated from Khawar Manika without reason and married Imran Khan. Mufti Saeed stated that the marriage of Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi took place during Eid.
The text of the appeal stated that former first lady Bushra Bibi and Imran Khan lived in Bani Gala. In February 2018, they were remarried, on which Mufti Saeed had given a statement in front of the civil judge.
