Addressing the court, the PTI founder insisted upon swearing in, saying: “I and Bushra Bibi are ready to take the oath, The Holy Quran be brought to the court. Khawar Manika must too take oath.
The PTI founder told the court that he had seen Bushra Bibi on the marriage day.
In response to Imran Khan’s insistence, Khawar Manika said: “You are lying. You have ruined my lie.
