RAWALPINDI: The Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) Rawalpindi has ordered the blocking of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan’s sister Aleema Khan’s national identity card and passport, along with the freezing of her bank accounts, after she failed to appear before the court despite arrest warrants.

The ATC directed the Director General of NADRA to block Aleema Khan’s CNIC, the Director General of Passports to block her passport, and the Governor of the State Bank of Pakistan to freeze all her bank accounts.
The judge remarked that the accused is seen everywhere but does not appear in court, emphasizing that her presence must be ensured at all costs. The hearing was adjourned till Monday, October 27.
