The Islamabad High Court (IHC) extended on Wednesday its orders against Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan’s arrest in further cases till May 31, Aaj News reported.

Last week, the IHC had approved his bail petition in the Al-Qadir Trust case and barred authorities from arresting him in any case registered in the jurisdiction of Islamabad after May 9 till May 17.

During the hearing today, presided by Justice Miangul Hasan Aurangzeb, the high court heard the former PM’s plea, seeking details of cases registered against him.

The government’s lawyer requested more time to provide information about the cases filed against Imran.
