Imran Khan challenges corruption conviction in Pakistan high court
Former prime minister was sentenced to three years in jail and disqualified from politics
Pakistan’s former prime minister Imran Khan has appealed against his conviction and three-year sentence on corruption charges, four days after he was jailed and barred from politics in a case threatening to worsen political uncertainty.
His lawyer, Naeem Panjutha, said the petition challenging Khan’s conviction on charges of selling state gifts unlawfully during his 2018-22 term as prime minister had been filed on Tuesday in the Islamabad high court, which would hear the case on Wednesday.
