An Accountability Court on Thursday rejected Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan’s plea seeking acquittal in a £190 million settlement reference.
As per details, the accountability court’s judge, Nasir Javed Rana, heard the arguments in Rawalpindi’s Adiala Jail from both sides before dismissing the plea.
Imran Khan’s counsel argued that Al-Qadir University is a trust and that his client did not get any personal benefits from it and was not involved in the financial dealings of the university.
However, the NAB prosecutor responded that the PTI founder had not disclosed the actual facts about the £190 million to the cabinet. He alleged that the cabinet was kept in the dark about the matter and the acquittal plea was not maintainable.
