After serving as Pakistan’s prime minister from 2018 to 2022, Imran Khan was detained and given a three-year prison sentence.
A Pakistani trial court found 70-year-old Imran guilty of neglecting to submit state gift revenues to the Pakistani Election Commission, according to a report by Reuters. Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), his political party, has already appealed the decision to the nation’s Supreme Court.
