£190 million case
The £190 million case involves former PM Imran Khan, his wife Bushra Bibi, and others, filed by NAB in December 2023. It centers on an alleged settlement between the PTI government and a property tycoon, which caused a loss of £190 million to Pakistan’s exchequer.
Khan and Bushra are accused of misusing the money sent by the UK’s NCA, with Bushra named for her role in the Al-Qadir Trust. The couple allegedly received benefits, including land for Al-Qadir University.
The NCA seized £190 million in assets during Khan’s tenure, but details of the confidential agreement were not disclosed.
