PTI demands Imran's immediate hospital transfer after jail report flags BP issues

The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) expressed concern on Monday over founder Imran Khan's high blood pressure, disclosed in a report from Adiala jail to Pakistan's Supreme Court. The PTI demanded immediate hospital transfer for the former prime minister. The jail report recommended more family visits to alleviate anxiety and blood pressure issues.

PTI leaders addressed a press conference, urging Khan to be moved to a hospital and granted access to his doctors, family, and legal counsel. Khan's blood pressure was confirmed as elevated. PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan emphasized that every Pakistani demands Imran's immediate hospitalization for optimal medical care. Gohar reiterated their ongoing legal battles in the Supreme Court and High Court, alleging a denial of Imran's fundamental legal rights, including access to his family, doctors, and lawyers.
