Despite recent judicial relief, former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan's troubles are far from over. He and his wife, Bushra Bibi, remain in jail despite a court overturning their conviction related to an un-Islamic marriage case.
The Supreme Court's ruling that Khan's PTI party is eligible for reserved seats has made PTI the largest party in the National Assembly. However, hopes for his swift release were dashed as the court handed him over to anti-corruption officials on an eight-day remand regarding a fresh corruption case.
Despite dozens of ongoing cases, Khan maintains verbal attacks against the Army leadership and his political rivals, mobilizing his supporters through social media. Political advisors to the current Prime Minister have suggested new cases will be lodged against Khan to ensure his prolonged detention.
