Prime Minister Imran Khan on Thursday filed an application in the Islamabad High Court (IHC) for early hearing of his party’s foreign funding case.
The application stated that the hearing of the case did not resume after September 18, 2018 and asked the court to hear the intra-court appeal.
As per the details, Imran Khan submitted an application in the IHC as a party head. The application said intra-court appeal against the verdict of single bench should be set for hearing as soon as possible.
The case was first filed in November 2014 by Babar, PTI’s founding member, accusing the PTI and its leadership of corruption and illegal funding of the party.
For over a year, the proceedings of the case were delayed in the ECP as the PTI had filed a writ petition in October 2015 in the Islamabad High Court seeking to restrain the ECP scrutiny of its accounts.
In February 2017, the IHC remanded the case back to the ECP for a fresh review of its jurisdiction.
