A Pakistani court has suspended the conviction and three-year prison sentence of former Prime Minister Imran Khan in the state gifts depository case.
The two-member bench of the Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Tuesday ordered Khan’s release on bail.
Khan, 70, was convicted on August 5 by a trial court for not declaring the assets he made from selling the gifts he received from foreign governments and leaders during his premiership between 2018 and 2022.
Khan was also barred by the country’s election commission from contesting elections for five years following his imprisonment.
