ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court on Tuesday declared the jail trial of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan in cipher case ‘null and void’, nullifying the August 29 notification, Channel News reported.  

An IHC division bench, comprising Justice Mian­gul Hassan Aur­angzeb and Justice Saman Rafat Imtiaz, announced the reserved verdict on an intra-court appeal filed by PTI chief Imran Khan against a single-member bench’s decision that had approved the ex-premier’s jail trial in the cipher case.

The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman is currently detained in Adiala jail in Rawalpindi on judicial remand.
