The PTI chief has been asked to appear before the Supreme Court on July 24 at 10:30 am. A three-member bench headed by Justice Yahya Khan Afridi heard Imran Khan’s plea. However, at the beginning of the hearing, the counsel of the PTI chairman Latif Khosa pleaded with the court to stop the proceedings of the case, reported ARY News.
