The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has granted bail to Bushra Bibi in the ongoing Toshakhana-II case, although her release has not yet been finalized, as reported by Presstonight
Court Decision
The court ordered Bushra Bibi’s release from Adiala Jail, but the trial court judge did not issue the necessary release orders, known as ‘Robkar’, due to his unavailability at the time of reporting.
During the hearing on Wednesday, Justice Mian Gul Hassan Aurangzeb approved the bail, stipulating that Bushra Bibi must submit a surety bond of Rs1 million. This decision provides temporary relief to her amid allegations of improper handling of state gifts.
