A Pakistani court declined bail to detained former Prime Minister Imran Khan on October 27 in a case in which he has been indicted on charges of leaking state secrets, his lawyer said. The charge is related to a classified cable sent to Islamabad by Pakistan's ambassador in the United States last year, which Khan is accused of making public. Former cricket star Khan denies the accusation and said the contents of the cable appeared in the media from other sources.
