Pakistan’s political landscape heats up as PTI sounds the alarm: ex-PM Imran Khan is being stealthily transferred from prison for treatment, sans family involvement. The party decries it as a perilous infringement on rights, heightening fears for his survival.
Drawing from unconfirmed reports, PTI revealed the clandestine plan ignores mandatory notifications to kin and doctors. Their statement urged authorities to ensure supervised care, decrying any secrecy as a deliberate endangerment.
Khan’s health woes have escalated, with vision impairment in one eye topping concerns voiced by relatives and media. Months of alleged lapses in Adiala Jail have sparked outrage, per The Express Tribune.
‘Prison regulations demand transparency—no exceptions,’ PTI asserted, rejecting delays as cruel and unacceptable. They called for immediate action, prioritizing their leader’s welfare above all.
Solidarity protests gripped Islamabad Friday, with opposition blocs staging sit-ins near the assembly. TTAP’s rallies demanded Khan’s hospitalization at Al-Shifa, promising no let-up.
Thursday’s Supreme Court directive for a specialist panel on his eyesight underscores the crisis’s severity. Since corruption charges led to his 2023 detention, Khan’s incarceration has been mired in controversy.
PTI’s bold stance signals a renewed campaign, positioning Khan’s plight as emblematic of systemic injustices in Pakistan’s detention system.
