Pak’s ex-PM Imran Khan moves court challenging his disqualification to contest polls for 5 years

Lahore, Dec 8 (PTI) Ahead of the general elections, Pakistan’s jailed former prime minister Imran Khan on Thursday challenged his disqualification for five years in a Pakistani court.

Khan, 71, has been in jail since August 5, when he was arrested after a conviction in the Toshakhana corruption case.

The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) disqualified the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader for five years on October 21 in the wake of his conviction in the Toshakhana (national treasury gifts) case for concealing details of the gifts he received as premier during his tenure (2018-2022).
