Pakistan: Former PM Khan moved to private hospital
Khan's supporters say his health has deteriorated during more than three years in prison since being removed from office in 2022.
ISLAMABAD: Former Prime Minister Imran Khan, the founder of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party, has arrived at Shifa International Hospital in Islamabad following his release from Adiala jail, according to Dawn News TV. Imran Khan has been imprisoned since August 5, 2023, for alleged concealment of details regarding Toshakhana gifts.
He is currently serving a 14-year sentence for a corruption case, also known as the Al-Qadir Trust case, held at Rawalpindi’s Adiala jail. The Supreme Court has ordered the government to transfer the ex-premier to Shifa International Hospital within two days for medical treatment, due to deteriorating health during his incarceration.
Security arrangements, including personnel from various departments and authorities, have been deployed around the hospital to ensure the safety and well-being of Imran Khan and citizens.
