The hearing of the Al-Qadir Trust case at the Islamabad High Court was adjourned due to the unavailability of the bench, leaving many, including Aleema Khan, disappointed. The next hearing is anticipated to be scheduled for April 17, 2026.
Aleema Khan, who has been vocal about the case, expressed her frustration, stating, “We will not leave until a new date is given.” She further criticized the justice system, saying, “What kind of justice system is this? We are being deprived of justice.” Khan emphasized the importance of timely justice, remarking, “Timely justice is essential for maintaining public confidence in the legal process.”
In a related development, the Islamabad High Court issued notices in a contempt of court petition against the Chairman of the Capital Development Authority. This petition was filed over allegations of tree cutting in violation of court orders, highlighting ongoing tensions regarding legal compliance in the region.
On the same day, Aleema Khan and others staged a sit-in outside the Islamabad High Court, demanding a new hearing date for the Al-Qadir Trust case. Their protest underscores the growing public interest and concern surrounding the case.
Imran Khan, who was arrested in connection with the Al-Qadir Trust case on May 9, 2023, has been a central figure in this legal saga. The court has allowed Barrister Salman Safdar to meet with him at Adiala Jail in relation to the ongoing proceedings.
The Al-Qadir Trust case has garnered significant attention, particularly due to the involvement of high-profile individuals like Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi. Observers are keenly awaiting further developments as the situation unfolds.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding the exact scheduling of the next hearing and the outcomes of the contempt petition against the Capital Development Authority.
