Incarcerated Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan, his wife Bushra Bibi, and other party’s top leaders on Friday were booked in a “triple murder case” involving three Rangers personnel who died during the opposition party’s “do-or-die” protest last month.
A first information report (FIR) was lodged at Islamabad’s Ramna Police Station, stating that the incident occurred in accordance with a “plan orchestrated at Adiala Jail” — where former premier Imran Khan is incarcerated for more than one year.
It added that the martyrdom of the paramilitary personnel took place “at the behest of the PTI founder” and “some inmates and employees of the jail’s undercover police are witnesses of the plan”.Play Video

The FIR stated that Bushra and other accused had incited the people for mutiny against the armed forces and the government via a video message which led to the unfortunate incident.
