Imran Khan’s Son Anger on Pak Government over “Inhumane Isolation”
“For the past six weeks, he has been alone in a death cell, completely isolated. His sisters have been denied every meeting, despite clear court orders. There have been no phone calls, no meetings, and no news about his well-being. My brother and I have not been able to reach our father in any way,” Kasim wrote.
Adiala Jail authorities rejected the death claims on Thursday, insisting that Imran Khan is in “completely good health.”
Who is behind the Imran Khan’s Mysterious Murder?
“The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf leadership has been updated about Imran Khan’s health. We are providing all necessary care to the PTI chief,” the Adiala Jail administration said in a statement.
They also clarified that the reports about moving Imran Khan from Adiala Jail are entirely unfounded. “Imran Khan is in Adiala Jail and is healthy. The rumours on social media about his transfer are not true,” the jail administration said.
Imran Khan has been in custody since August 2023 and faces multiple charges that he argues are politically motivated. He was convicted in a corruption case in January, receiving a 14-year sentence, while his wife received seven years.
