Former Pakistan Prime Minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan will not go to jail for now as Lahore High Court on Monday (February 20) approved his protective bail plea in a case pertaining to protests outside the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP).
Imran Khan had filed for bail in a case related to violent protests outside the election commission post the disqualification of the cricketer-turned-politician by the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) in the prohibited funding case last year.Â
