Earlier, the Peshawar High Court (PHC) granted transit bail to Faisal against bail bonds worth Rs0.1 million, and ordered the PTI leader to appear before the concerned court. Speaking after his appearance at the PHC, Javed confidently asserted, "Khan saheb [Imran Khan] will contest the elections from Mianwali, and he will soon be the prime minister of Pakistan." The entire senior PTI leadership including Faisal had been booked under multiple cases of riots and vandalism, as protestors took to the streets following party founder Imran Khan's arrest on May 9 in the Al-Qadir Trust case.
