According to reports, the FIR, filed at Ghakhar Mandi police station, accuses Bushra Bibi of making provocative statements that allegedly harmed the emotional ties between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia.

The video also allegedly contained statements contrary to the country’s foreign policy and public interest. The first case was filed in Dera Ghazi Khan on the complaint of a citizen named Ghulam Yaseen.
Additionally, a second case was filed in Rajanpur, with another citizen, Hakeem, as the complainant.
The controversy stems from a statement by former First lady, alleging interference by former COAS General Qamar Javed Bajwa under foreign influence.
PTI founder’s wife claimed that after the Imran Khan visited Madinah ‘barefoot’ and returned, General Bajwa began receiving phone calls.
According to Bushra Bibi, Bajwa was told, “Who have you brought forward? We don’t want such individuals.”
She further alleged that Bajwa was informed, “We are planning to abolish Sharia in this country, and you have introduced such a person.”
Imran Khan’s wife stated that following these remarks, a campaign of defamation was initiated against her and the PTI founder, Imran Khan.
“They spread slander about me and began labelling the PTI founder as a Jewish agent,” she added.
