ISLAMABAD: Former prime minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan and Vice-Chairman Shah Mehmood Qureshi are likely to be indicted in the cipher case today (Monday).
The hearing of the case will take place at Adyala Jail in Rawalpindi and Judge Abu-al-Hasnaat Muhammad Zulqarnain will preside over the proceedings.
On October 17, the PTI lawyers had raised objections regarding the non-distribution of the copies of the charge sheet. Subsequently, the indictment was deferred to October 23.
