Islamabad/Lahore, Aug 5 (PTI) In a fresh jolt to Imran Khan, police in Pakistan on Saturday arrested the embattled former prime minister after he was sentenced in absentia to three years in prison in a corruption case over the sale of expensive state gifts when he was in power.
Additional Judge Humayun Dilawar of the Islamabad-based district and sessions judge also imposed a fine of Rs100,000 on Khan, adding that the 70-year-old leader would be kept in jail for another six months if failed to pay the fine.
“Charges of misdeclaration of assets have been proven against Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman,” the judge ruled.
