Pakistan has raised a record $3 billion through a dual-tranche Eurobond, its largest-ever international capital market transaction. The issue attracted nearly $6 billion in orders, signaling strong investor confidence.

The deal includes $1.75 billion in 5.5-year bonds at 7.5% and $1.25 billion in 10-year bonds at 7.9%. The government said the issuance is part of its strategy to diversify funding sources, extend debt maturities, reduce refinancing risks and improve its overall debt profile.

The transaction marks Pakistan’s first issuance under its renewed Global Medium-Term Note programme and follows recent improvements in its sovereign credit ratings and successful Panda Bond issuance.

PTI has filed a contempt petition in the Supreme Court, alleging that authorities violated its order directing Imran Khan’s transfer to Shifa International Hospital for a medical examination. Instead, he was taken to Pims, where Shifa specialists also participated in his examination, and he was later returned to Adiala Jail. PTI has sought contempt proceedings against Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and ministers Azam Nazeer Tarar and Attaullah Tarar, along with Khan’s immediate transfer to Shifa and judicial oversight to ensure compliance with the court’s order.

PTI leader Shafi Jan has announced that the party will launch a long march from Peshawar to Islamabad on September 27, claiming two million people will participate. He called the march the party’s “last option” and said its ultimate goal is to secure the release of Imran Khan.

The announcement differs from KP Chief Minister Sohail Afridi’s stance that the immediate objective is to restore access to Imran Khan, with his release to be pursued through legal and constitutional means.

Jan alleged that Imran’s family and party workers have been denied meetings with him for months and urged PTI supporters to unite for a peaceful, constitutional protest. He also claimed the TTAP and potentially other political parties, including JUI-F, would participate.

The father of deceased businessman Mir Raza Ali has rejected claims that his son’s death was a su***de, alleging he was murdered. He claimed Ali’s face, body and fingerprints had been burned, that he was shot from behind, and questioned why the medical report mentioned only a gunshot wound without noting alleged signs of torture. He also raised concerns about his son’s whereabouts during the 24 hours between his disappearance and the discovery of his body. Meanwhile, Karachi Police have formed a special three-member investigation team to conduct a comprehensive probe into the high-profile case and identify those responsible.
