Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan and the party’s vice president Shah Mahmood Qureshi were acquitted on Monday in two cases related to long march vandalism, Geo News reported. 

Judicial Magistrate Ehtesham Alam cleared the politicians in both cases.

The court also acquitted other politicians, including Ali Muhammad Khan, Murad Saeed, and former PTI leader Asad Umar in both cases.

Asad Umar and Ali Muhammad Khan appeared before the court to mark their attendance as the cases were registered against them at Golra Police Station.

On May 30, the court acquitted Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan in two similar cases related to May 9 violence.

“Because of insufficient evidence presented by the prosecution, the PTI founder has been acquitted,” the district and sessions court said in its verdict.
