Bushra Bibi has since been moved to Bani Gala, designated as a sub-jail. This residence in Islamabad belongs to Imran Khan. The relocation was formalized through a notification.
Security Measures and Sentencing
In light of recent events, Islamabad Police maintain strict security at Bani Gala. A similar increase in security is seen around Adiala Jail, with police personnel bolstering the facility’s perimeter.
Recent threats have escalated concerns. The jail administration reported a threatening call, prompting heightened security measures. Officials have confirmed the receipt of this call on the jail’s official number.
Previously, both Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi received a 14-year sentence in the Toshakhana case. They were also fined Rs1,574 million and barred from public office for 10 years. Their right to cross-examine prosecution witnesses was closed after being asked to record statements under Section 342 of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
