Bushra had accused Saudi Arabia of conspiring against her husband and ousting him from power.
Many cases have been registered against Bushra Bibi, wife of former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan, for making statements against Saudi Arabia. Bushra was charged under the Telegraph Act of 1885 for inciting religious hatred, misleading the public and making false statements against Saudi Arabia, a friendly country. Bushra, who is out on bail in the Toshakhana case, had alleged that the Saudis had hatched a conspiracy and ousted her husband from power.
Pakistani Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif himself criticized Bushra Bibi's statement. Sharif said that Saudi has always helped Pakistan without any conditions. Spitting any kind of venom against such a brotherly country is unpardonable. As the Prime Minister of Pakistan, I want to tell that the country will break any hand that tries to weaken Pakistan-Saudi friendship.
Imran Khan defended his wife
After this statement of Shehbaz Sharif, many cases were registered in Dera Ghazi Khan, Gujranwala, Multan, Rajanpur and Muzaffarnagar districts of Punjab. However, Imran Khan, who is lodged in Adiala jail, defended his wife and said that she had not mentioned Saudi Arabia at all in the video.
On Friday, a 29-minute video of Bushra was released on the YouTube channel of Tehreek-e-Insaf party. This video heated up the political atmosphere of the country. After which many leaders and ministers of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PMLN) said that strict action will be taken against those trying to spoil Pakistan-Saudi relations.
Bushra Bibi came out of jail on October 24 after being in jail for more than 265 days.
Accusations were also made against former army chief Bajwa
In the video, Bushra Bibi also took the name of Pakistan's then Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa along with Saudi. Bushra said that Imran Khan had made a religious visit to Saudi Arabia in May 2021. During this time Imran had gone to Madina 'barefoot'. After his return, General Bajwa started receiving calls. He asked Bajwa, 'Who has he brought with him? We want to end the Shariat system in this country and you have brought the contractors of Shariat. We don't want this.
Bajwa has denied Bushra's allegations. In an interview given to Pakistan's ARY News, Bajwa said that all the allegations of Bushra Bibi are absurd.
Relations between Imran Khan and General Bajwa were very good. However, during his second term, relations between the two turned sour. Imran later claimed that Bajwa was pressuring for friendly relations with India.
