He further pointed out that the Islamabad High Court had suspended criminal proceedings against the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chief in a case that should not have been exempted under the law.

The PML-N leader emphasized that the PTI chairman had failed to disclose the gifts he retained from Toshakhana in his declarations, warranting the necessity of a fair and just trial.
