Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi have been sentenced to 14 years in jail in the Toshakhana reference. This is Imran’s third conviction. He is now out of the race for the February 8 general elections. Previously he has been convicted in the cipher case and the Toshakhana case and has also been sentenced to three years’ imprisonment earlier. Bushra Bibi arrived at Adiala Jail to surrender to arrest after she was sentenced. PTI terms the verdict as a “complete destruction of every existing law in Pakistan.” It also said that the “scales have been balanced” and that such sentences in such cases against former premiers have been the norm in Pakistani politics in the past.
