ISLAMABAD (Pakistan News online) The Supreme Court on Thursday approved bail for former PTI Chairman Imran Khan in eight cases related to the events of May 9.

A three-member bench headed by Chief Justice Yahya Afridi granted the bail after hearing arguments from both the prosecution and Khan’s legal team. The bench underwent a change before the hearing, with Justice Hassan Azhar Rizvi replacing Justice Miangul Hassan Aurangzeb.

During the proceedings, Special Prosecutor Zulfiqar Naqvi cited health reasons for his absence in the previous hearing. The Chief Justice responded sympathetically, saying, “No problem.”
