• Aleema accused in PTI’s Nov 26 protest case involving clashes in Islamabad.
• Hearing adjourned till October 27.

ATC Judge Amjad Ali Shah remarked that Aleema “is present everywhere but doesn’t appear before the court.” The court directed NADRA, the Passport Directorate, and the State Bank of Pakistan to enforce the orders immediately.

Aleema Khan, along with several PTI leaders, faces charges under the Anti-Terrorism Act for her alleged role in the November 2022 protest that saw thousands of PTI supporters clash with security forces in Islamabad’s Red Zone.

The case has now become a key legal flashpoint for the PTI leadership, as courts tighten their grip on party figures accused of defying law and order.
