As per details the FIR stated that Imran Khan had reached the complex with a plethora of enraged PTI activists who threatened the police and other security officials and destroyed public property and CCTV cameras. Separate cases have been registered for creating chaos at the judicial complex and the Islamabad High Court (IHC).

Meanwhile earlier, the police had lodged a terrorism case but no there were no reports of nomination of PTI chief and other leaders. Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah had said that case would be lodged against those who created chaos in Islamabad’s judicial complex.

Furthermore the Islamabad High Court (IHC) granted interim bail to Imran Khan until March 9 in the Toshakhana case hours after non-bailable arrest warrants were issued for him in the case as he had failed to appear before the court on multiple instances.

Moreover on the other hand, an anti-terrorism court in the federal capital granted interim bail to PTI chief Imran Khan in a case pertaining to protests outside the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP), and a banking court approved his pre-arrest bail in the prohibited funding case.
