Imran divorced Reham on email at Bushra Bibi's advice, Awn Chaudhry tells court.

LAHORE: The former premier allegedly divorced Rehman Khan by email on the suggestion of Bushra Bibi, according to Awn Chaudhry, a close adviser to PTI Chairman Imran Khan.

The former PTI leader stated it while recording his statement in a Nikkah case involving Imran Khan and his current wife Bushra Bibi during the latter's "iddat" time.

The alleged un-Islamic Nikkah of Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi was revealed after a petition was filed in a federal capital court by Muhammad Hanif, a Pakistani citizen.

Awn claimed to have worked as Khan's personal assistant and political secretary, handling all of the PTI chief's political and personal affairs. He claimed that Imran Khan divorced Reham in 2015 after Bushra convinced him that it would be best for him to divorce her.

He said that Reham was not in the country at the time, and that the former premier had sent him the divorce via email. Following the divorce, Imran Khan claimed to have met with Bushra Bibi.
