Islamabad: A Pakistani court on Monday rejected the bail plea of jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi in the new Toshakhana case. In this case, the husband and wife are accused of misuse of power in buying government gifts. In the new case, the decision of the case against the husband and wife is to be taken on October 2.

Special Judge Central Shahrukh Arjumand pronounced the verdict after the hearing in Adiala Jail.
