The Pakistan government has permitted Dr Uzma Khanum, one of former Prime Minister Imran Khan’s sisters, to meet him in Rawalpindi’s Adiala Jail. The move comes amid rising international attention, human rights concerns, and rumours about Khan’s health. Sources said the meeting is a “selective humanitarian gesture” and will be brief, supervised, and without phones. Authorities remain cautious due to security concerns and possible public reaction.
Sister Uzma Khanum Meets Imran Khan
Uzma Khanum, a medical doctor, was allowed to see her brother while the other sisters remained barred. Officials aim to prevent public disclosure of Khan’s physical and mental condition. Security sources noted concerns over potential protests and unrest in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The government’s decision follows allegations of political vendetta and financial pressure on the Khan family by state institutions.
