 LAHORE: The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Saturday fixed for hearing a petition of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan’s wife Bushra Bibi seeking details of inquiries pending and cases registered against her.

Justice Shehram Sarwar Chaudhry-led two-member bench will hear the plea on November 27 (Monday).

The petitioner, in her plea, pleaded that after removal of Imran Khan as prime minister of Pakistan, cases were being registered against her as she sought details regarding cases and pending inquires.

Earlier, a district and sessions court in Islamabad had dropped the alleged unlawful marriage case against the PTI chief and his wife Bushra Bibi. The petitioner, Muhammad Hanif, appeared in court with his lawyer Fawad Haider, to state that he wanted to withdraw the case on technical grounds.

The court then dismissed the case where the petitioner had accused the PTI chairman and his wife of marrying during iddat (the barring period of about four months for the divorced or widow women in Islamic Sharia, to remarry).
