Imran Khan gets bail in land corruption case 

Former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan has got bail in a land corruption case.

A court in Islamabad granted the bail on Wednesday, his lawyer said on social media platform X.

The former cricketer was indicted on charges that he and his were gifted land by a real estate developer when Khan was prime minister in exchange for illegal favours.

Khan who denies the charges, had filed a bail application before the Islamabad High Court.

Despite the bail, Khan, 71, in jail since August last year, will not be immediately released as he is serving sentences in two other cases.
