Former Pakistani prime minister Imran Khan and his wife, Bushra Bibi, have been sentenced to 14 years in prison for corruption. Khan was also sentenced to 10 years in prison for leaking state secrets. The couple is accused of retaining and selling state gifts while Khan was in power. The sentence comes just a week before national elections in Pakistan, in which Khan is barred from standing. It is unclear if the sentences will be served consecutively or concurrently. Khan has claimed that the cases against him are politically motivated.
