Imran Khan Sentenced to 14 Years in Corruption Case
Former Prime Minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan, has been sentenced to 14 years in prison due to his involvement in a land corruption case. Along with him, his wife, Bushra Bibi, received a 7-year prison term. The conviction has sparked questions about the integrity of the Pakistani legal system, with British MPs expressing concerns following the high-profile sentencing. Supporters of Khan have demonstrated outside the jail, protesting against what they perceive as political persecution. The verdict in the £190 million Al-Qadir case against Khan and his wife has been postponed multiple times, adding to the ongoing legal troubles for the former leader.
