    Khan to face new cases in future: Sanaullah

    Advisor to Prime Minister on Political and Public Affairs Rana Sanaullah stated on Geo News program ‘Capital Talk’ that new cases would be filed against former Prime Minister Imran Khan after he recently got major relief in the cypher case from Islamabad High Court on June 3.

    “Doubts can be created in a simple matter…at one time, we saw back-to-back sentences without the creation of doubts. It is likely to see doubts in the iddat case as well just like we saw in the cypher case,” said the former Interior Minister.

    Sanaullah opined that the iddat case was being termed a “personal affair” of a public personality which is not true.

    He said that Khan was nominated in cases in which he confessed his crimes and admitted that new cases would be filed in the days to come.

    Sanaullah hinted at Khan’s controversial X post that a case might be filed regarding that.
