The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Monday ordered the regime to provide details of gifts drawn so far from Toshakhana since 1947.
The instruction came during the hearing of citizen Munir Ahmed’s plea, headed by LHC’s Justice Asim Hafeez.
The federal government’s lawyer informed the court that the required details cannot be provided.
However, brushing the argument aside, the court directed the authorities concerned to submit the details of gifts taken from Toshakhana since 1947, by January 16.
Imran Khan is facing a scandal concerning the Toshakhana gifts for allegedly spoiling in corrupt practices, which the former premier denies.
Recently, another alleged audio leak of Khan’s wife, Bushra Bibi, over the Toshakhana gifts came to the fore in which she can be heard talking to the former administrator of the ex-prime minister’s Bani Gala residence.
The former first lady can be purportedly heard talking to the ex-administrator, identified as Inam Khan, for taking photos of the Toshakhana gifts coming into Bani Gala.
This is the former first lady’s second audio related to Toshakhana that has surfaced. In the first one, she could purportedly the heard speaking to PTI leader Zulfi Bukhari about selling the watches gifted to Khan as “they were of no use to him”.
