He submitted that his client wanted to appear before the court of original jurisdiction in Islamabad but feared arrest. He pleaded with the court to grant protective bail to his client so that she could approach the court concerned.
At this, the court allowed the request and granted protective bail to Bushra Bibi till June 21.
Kohsar police, Islamabad, had registered a case against the PTI chairman, his wife Bushra Bibi, and others under sections 420, 467, 468, and 471 of the Pakistan Penal Code (PPC).
