Judge Miangul Hassan Aurangzeb of the Islamabad High Court ordered to free the opposition leader from jail and granted bail in the case for selling state gifts and not disclosing the income when he was in power, his lawyer Salman Safdar told reporters in Islamabad on Wednesday. Khan will be released from jail “soon,” he said.
