Imran Khan, leader of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), was at the Katcheri in Islamabad on Monday when an unidentified individual threw a water bottle at him.
The ex-prime minister managed to avoid harm.
The PTI leader was reportedly on his way to appear before Judge Humayun Dilawar. The event occurred because of inadequate security measures.
A trial court in Islamabad granted the former prime minister a one-day reprieve from appearing in the Toshakhana case two days ago.
The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has filed a criminal complaint against the former premier, alleging that he had concealed data about public gifts.
The PTI chief’s request for a postponement was granted by Additional District and Sessions Judge Humayun Dilawar, who also ordered him to appear in court on Monday (July 24).
Barrister Gohar Ali, the defendant’s attorney, filed a motion for a stay of proceedings and asked that it be postponed until Monday.
Lawyer Amjad Pervaiz representing the ECP raised an objection to the plea, saying that no excuses for absence from court had been provided. He argued that the accused should be required to appear in court.
