'We will fight this case': PTI's leadership supports Imran Khan after IHC's indictment decision.

ISLAMABAD -- The PTI's top-tier leadership backed its chairman Imran Khan after the Islamabad High Court (IHC) decided to indict the former prime minister after two weeks in a contempt of court case.

The court had taken notice of the former prime minister's speech at a public rally, where he allegedly threatened Islamabad additional sessions judge Zeba Chaudhry for extending PTI leader Shahbaz Gill's remand.

In response, PTI's leaders started a Twitter trend #IStandWithImranKhan and stated that their party would fight the case as the former prime minister had struggled for the rule of law.

PTI Secretary-General Asad Umar said that in Khan's 26-year political career, an important aspect was that he always wanted an independent judiciary.

"InshaAllah, a decision based on justice will ensure Khan's victory," he said.

PTI's spokesperson on legal matters, Maleeka Bokhari, said that Hamid Khan - who was the ex-PM's lawyer in the case - represented the PTI chairman "in a very apt manner".
