Imran Khan's jail sentence: Former Pakistan leader sentenced to 3 years in prison for graft

Description

Pakistan's opposition leader Imran Khan has been taken into custody on Saturday and sentenced to three years in prison for illegally selling state gifts given to him while in office. The conviction means the 70 year old will not be able to take part in any election for the next five years. The former prime minister denies wrong doing and says it's part of a political campaign against him by the military. For more, FRANCE 24 is joined from London by Zulphiqar Bukhari, a close aid to Imran Khan.
