Pakistan court orders Imran’s open trial in jail

[Collection]A Pakistani special court mandated Tuesday an open trial for jailed former PM Imran Khan inside the Adiala jail premises in the garrison city of Rawalpindi, with the government submitting reports citing threats to his life. The special court, established to try Khan as well as his deputy and ex-foreign minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi under the Official Secrets Act, is addressing the alleged leak of state secrets, known as the cipher case. The trial was initially conducted in jail, but the Islamabad high court declared the entire process illegal last week
