PAKISTAN: A Pakistani appeals court suspended a 14-year prison sentence for former prime minister Imran Khan and his wife today in a corruption case.
However the couple will not be released because they are already serving prison terms for other cases, officials said.
The Islamabad High Court suspended the sentence for Mr Khan and his wife, Bushra Bibi, after hearing an appeal from their lawyer, according to Zulfiqar Bukhari, the spokesperson for Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party.
