ISLAMABAD, Oct 10 (DNA): Bushra Bibi, the former first lady, feared that
the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief could be ‘poisoned’ in Adiala
Jail as she approached the Islamabad High Court (IHC) again for
immediate hearing of her plea seeking enhanced security for her husband
in prison.

The former premier is currently in Adiala Jail in cipher case.

According to details, Bushra Bibi has again moved the Islamabad High
Court (IHC) through her lawyer, Latif Khosa for an immediate hearing of
her plea.

The fresh plea stated the hearing was fixed for hearing on October 25
after the initial hearing on the plea on October 5. Bushra Bibi pleaded
with the court to fix her plea for an early hearing, fearing that her
husband could be ‘poisoned’ in jail.

In the petition, she stated that tampering with her husband’s food could
be detrimental to his life, noting that the PTI chief was not being
provided with the facilities to which he is entitled.

Bushra Bibi pointed out that her husband was even denied home-cooked
meals.

It may be noted that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman and former
prime minister was shifted to Adiala from the Attock jail, last month on
the orders of the Islamabad High Court. DNA
