The rumors surrounding Imran Khan's third wife have sparked attention. Unlike his previous wives, Jemima Goldsmith and Reham Khan, Bushra Maneka kept a low profile and remained hidden behind a veil. Imran Khan proudly mentioned in an interview that he only saw his wife's face after they were married, which was uncommon in the 1980s. What intrigued people the most was Bushra's mystical powers as a faith healer, which earned her a small following. After Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi were sentenced to jail and fined for corruption, people became curious about her background. While some claim she follows the Sufi tradition, others dispute it. Sufism emphasizes the inner search for God and abstaining from worldly matters. Imran Khan's previous relationships were full of glamour and media attention, but his marriage to Bushra Bibi was a quiet affair. It is rumored that Imran sought advice from Bushra after meeting her at a Sufi shrine, despite her still being married at the time. According to whispers, Bushra had a dream that marrying Imran Khan was the only way he could become Pakistan's prime minister. They wedded, and six months later, Imran Khan assumed office. However, Bushra Bibi denied this story in her only television interview, predicting that Pakistan would improve under Imran Khan's leadership, which did not happen. During Imran Khan's tenure, Pakistan faced economic collapse, increasing living costs, curbs on media freedoms, human rights violations, and attacks on journalists. His political career fell apart, resulting in his ousting and subsequent arrest. Bushra Bibi, now serving as Pakistan's former first lady, is also incarcerated, facing a 14-year sentence for illegally benefiting from state gifts during Imran Khan's tenure. She also faces legal troubles from her former husband, who accused her of fraudulent marriage. The court dismissed the fornication charge but allowed the fraudulent marriage case to proceed. Bushra Bibi's precise involvement in the state gifts case is unclear. The PTI party, Imran Khan's party, considers these cases politically motivated. Despite claims that Bushra Bibi has no connection to the case, she surrendered herself and now faces the prospect of years as a convict, being placed under house arrest in Islamabad.
