The former Pakistani Prime Minister's conviction was overturned, yet he continues to serve time for other charges.

  • Islamabad High Court cleared Imran Khan of leaking classified diplomatic cables.
  • Khan's foreign minister, Shah Mehmood Qureshi, was also acquitted.
  • Despite the acquittal, Khan remains in jail due to a separate conviction related to his marriage.
  • Khan's legal team claims the cases are politically motivated to prevent his return to power.
