Ex-Pakistan PM Imran Khan sentenced to 14 years in jail in corruption case
Pakistan's former prime minister Imran Khan has been given a year jail sentence in a land corruption case, officials and his lawyer have said.
The verdict in the case followed allegations of possible bribery involving land, which was exchanged for favours by real estate developer Malik Riaz Hussain.
It is linked to the Al Qadir Trust that Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi established while he was in office.
Prosecutors say this was a front for the former prime minister.
It is the largest case of alleged financial wrongdoing against Khan and was delivered by an anti-corruption court in a prison in Rawalpindi, where the former prime minister has been jailed since August
Khan's Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party insists the land was not for personal gain, and instead was meant for a spiritual educational institution.
Bibi was also convicted in the land corruption case.
