Former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan has petitioned the Islamabad High Court, expressing concerns about a possible military trial in connection with the May 9 cases. He cited recent events, including the arrest of retired Lt Gen Faiz Hameed and statements from government officials, as reasons for his apprehensions.
Khan’s petition highlights the unconstitutionality of trying civilians through court martial, referencing a Supreme Court judgement. He urges the court to prevent his handover to military authorities and ensure his cases are heard in civilian courts.
Rumors swirl about Khan’s potential transfer to military custody, but there is no official confirmation.
