In a significant political development, Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has voiced support for the legal right of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan to be granted bail. In a recent interview with Sky News, Bilawal stated that if courts decide to release Imran Khan on bail, he will personally respect and support the decision.
“Bail is the right of the PTI founder,” said Bilawal Bhutto. “If the courts grant it, I will not challenge the decision personally.” He emphasized his commitment to judicial independence and urged political actors to respect legal outcomes, hoping his party would also follow suit.
This statement marks a rare moment of political maturity amidst Pakistan’s polarizing climate, where legal proceedings involving the PTI founder remain highly sensitive.

In the same interview, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari also addressed the suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty, calling it a violation of international law. He reiterated that Pakistan is a responsible nuclear state and believes all disputes, particularly with neighboring India, should be resolved through dialogue and diplomacy.
He warned of the absence of an effective mechanism to address crises between the two nuclear powers and emphasized that the resolution of the Kashmir issue is central to lasting peace in the region.
Political Unity on Rule of Law
Bilawal’s support for Imran Khan’s legal rights sends a strong message about the importance of judicial independence and respect for the constitution, at a time when political tensions run high. His remarks are being viewed as an appeal for political tolerance and a commitment to democratic values.
