[QUOTE="dalvinder45, post: 224472, member: 26009"] Today on 5 August 2023 Imran Khan has been sentenced to 3 years imprisonment, 1 Lakh fine and 5 years ban from taking part in elections by Islamabad-based sessions court . In case he fails to pay Rs. 1 Lakh he will have to undergo 6 months more imprisonment. The sentence was given in Toshakhana case where he was been sentenced for selling out gifts received by him from foreign visits. As per the complaint against him he was supposed to deposit these gifts in Toshakhana that is state treasury. If he needs these he can buy these after paying for them. These gifts are stated to be a pen, a ring and such like minor items stated to be costing 6,35,000 dollars (140million in Pakistan currency). 70 years' Imran Khan's advocate stated that his witnesses were jailed in various cases pertaining to cases during uprising during Imran Khans's precious arrest and his arty PTI will now appeal in High court against this preplanned unmatched punishment to stop him from fighting elections due in November which Shahbaz Shrief and Pakistan Army first tried to postpone but when SC did not agree and the elections became imminent, Sharief and Army planned to get him barred from fighting elections working on London plan as per Imran Khan's statement. Pakistan has maintained its notoriety for jailing former prime ministers while shying away from taking any action against military dictators who repeatedly violated the Constitution.

Imran Khan, the chief of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party was immediately arrested from his Zaman Park residence in Lahore after the announcement of the punishment in a mechanical manner and was taken to Islamabad. The Toshakhana is a department under the Cabinet Division that stores gifts given to rulers and government officials by heads of other governments and foreign dignitaries. Khan bought some gifts including a precious watch given to him by the Saudi crown prince and sold the same for profit.Khan could buy the gifts from Toshakhana and also carry out the sale but failed to inform the Election Commission of Pakistan about the money he made for which he was accused of concealment which is a crime under the law. Earlier, Khan might have escaped with a warning or a fine by the court, but he had already run out of luck when he fell out with the powerful military establishment that led to his ouster from the government in April last year. Khan is not the first Pakistani premier to end up in jail, the country has numerous examples of the treatment meted out to elected leaders in its sordid history. The first on the list is Hussain Shaheed Suhrawardy, a Bengali politician from then East Pakistan who served as the fifth prime minister. He was arrested in January 1962 and put in jail on bogus charges of “anti-state activities”. His actual crime was his refusal to support military ruler General Ayub Khan.
