RAWALPINDI: An anti-terrorism court in Rawalpindi on Saturday ordered the authorities to allow Bushra Bibi to meet Imran Khan in Adiala jail after she refused to respond to police questioning regarding cases related to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) protests, stating she would only do so after consulting her husband and lawyer.

She said she could join the investigation even today if she was allowed to meet her husband. She also submitted an application demanding that she should be investigated in the presence of PTI founder.
The court, in line with SOPs, directed the authorities concerned to allow Bushra Bibi to meet Imran Khan in jail and adjourned the hearing till March 7.
Police teams had arrived at Adiala jail in Rawalpindi, where Bushra Bibi is currently held, to include her in the investigation.
