KARACHI:
Former Prime Minister Imran Khan has filed nomination papers to contest for the chancellorship of Oxford University, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) announced on Sunday.
“As per Imran Khan’s instructions, his application form to Oxford University Chancellor Election 2024 has been submitted. We look forward to everyone’s support for a historic campaign,” PTI leader Zulfikar Bukhari said in a post on X.

Khan, an alumnus of Oxford University, is currently languishing in a jail in the garrison city of Rawalpindi, seeking bail in multiple cases, which range from corruption to inciting violence.
Khan denies the allegations.
His two convictions have been set aside, while a third has been suspended by courts.
Khan, 72, was ousted through a no-trust vote in April 2022, over a year before the completion of his five-year stint.
