Imran Khan’s Party Raises Alarm Over Ex-PM’s Well-being, Citing Isolation and Denial of Access

Islamabad – The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), the political party of jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan, is urgently demanding access to Khan, citing serious concerns about his health and prolonged isolation. Khan has been incarcerated since August 2023, serving a 14-year sentence on corruption charges that he alleges are fabricated by the military to sideline him politically.

PTI spokesperson Zulfikar Bukhari told Reuters that no one has been able to see the former Prime Minister since November 4th. The party has received no explanation for the denial of visitation rights to both family and legal counsel.

“His health is our concern. We are worried about his illegal isolation,” Bukhari stated, calling on the government to grant immediate access to Khan’s family.

Khan’s family and PTI members have staged protests outside Rawalpindi prison in recent days, demanding to see him. On Thursday, a PTI delegation was again denied access to Khan at the prison. According to prison rules, Khan is entitled to weekly visits, although authorities retain the power to suspend access. The PTI claims there have been numerous extended periods where Khan has been denied contact with the outside world.

Local media reports suggest that the 73-year-old former cricketer may be moved to a high-security prison, potentially further restricting access. The situation has ignited social media discussion, with the hashtag #WHEREISIMRANKHAN trending on X.

The interior ministry has not responded to requests for comment.

A jail official, speaking anonymously to Reuters, claimed the former Prime Minister is in good health and that he was not aware of plans to move him to any other facility.

Imran Khan, who served as Prime Minister from 2018 until his ouster in a 2022 vote of no-confidence, alleges his removal was orchestrated due to a falling out with powerful military generals. His arrest in May 2023 sparked nationwide protests and a subsequent crackdown on the PTI. While the PTI emerged as the largest single party in the 2024 elections, they allege that election rigging prevented them from securing a majority, ultimately leading to a coalition government led by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. Sharif and his allies deny the rigging allegations.
