NBW issued against Imran Khan
Islamabad Oct 12 (IANS) The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) on Thursday issued a non-bailable arrest warrant (NBW) against Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan after he failed to appear before it in a contempt of court case.
The case was filed against Khan by PTI dissident and one of the party s founding members Akbar S. Babar reports Dawn news.
The PTI is set to challenge the warrants in the Islamabad High Court.
On September 14 the ECP had issued a bailable arrest warrant against Khan following his failure to show up for the proceedings which were later suspended by the court on the PTI s petition.
