Imran Khan's sister Noreen Niazi meets him at Rawalpindi's Adiala jail

Rawalpindi: Noreen Niazi, sister of imprisoned former Prime Minister Imran Khan, met him at Adiala jail on Tuesday after the Supreme Court granted her weekly family visits. Imprisoned since August 5, 2023 for concealing details of Toshakhana gifts, Imran is serving a 14-year sentence at Adiala jail in a £190 million corruption case.

Despite previous orders allowing twice-a-week meetings, he has been restricted from visitors for months. Noreen, accompanied by other family members, met Imran in the jail's conference room to discuss his health and other matters. Imran's wife, Bushra Bibi, also met with her family in the jail's conference room. The PTI's Aleema Khanum, one of Imran's sisters, condemned the government's handling of Imran's health and called for his immediate transfer to Shifa International Hospital for a medical checkup.
