**Interview with Legal Expert on Recent Bail Hearing for PTI Chairman**
**Interviewer:** Good morning, and thank you for joining us today to discuss the recent bail hearing of the Chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) in relation to the cipher case. What can you tell us about the specifics of the hearing that took place?
**Expert:** Good morning! Yes, the hearing was conducted by Special Secret Court Judge Abul Hasnat Zulqarnain and has been adjourned until September 4. The focus was primarily on the bail application filed by the chairman’s lawyers.
**Interviewer:** What were the main arguments presented by the defense during the hearing?
**Expert:** The lawyers, Babar Awan and Salman Safdar, argued for the chairman’s release on bail. Salman Safdar specifically pointed out the difficulties faced by the legal team due to restrictions in Attock Jail, highlighting that they had to walk a considerable distance to meet their client. They also filed a petition challenging the trial taking place within the jail compound itself, which could impact the fairness of the process.
**Interviewer:** That sounds significant. Were there any other legal representatives involved in the proceedings?
**Expert:** Yes, indeed. Shah Mehmood Qureshi’s lawyer, Ali Bukhari, also attended the hearing and expressed his intention to present arguments regarding his client’s bail as well. This indicates that there could be wider implications for other PTI leaders involved in similar cases.
**Interviewer:** Moving forward, what implications could this adjournment and the ongoing case have for PTI and its leadership?
**Expert:** The adjournment allows for further deliberation and the potential to assess more evidence. However, it also leaves PTI’s leadership in a state of uncertainty. If the court decides favorably on the bail application, it could potentially energize the party’s base, while a denial may have the opposite effect, impacting not just PTI’s strategy but also public sentiment toward their leadership.
**Interviewer:** Thank you for your insights. It will be interesting to see how things develop leading up to the next hearing on September 4.
**Expert:** Thank you for having me. Yes, it will indeed be a critical date for PTI and for the legal landscape in Pakistan.
