Former Prime Minister Imran Khan was recently transferred from Adiala Jail to Islamabad's Shifa International Hospital for a comprehensive medical examination. At the age of 73, Imran spent a few hours overnight at the hospital, undergoing a thorough medical check-up conducted by a team of qualified doctors. Information Minister Attaullah Tarar announced the move in a post on X, stating that the examination was carried out in accordance with the Supreme Court's order.
The government had initially challenged the court's decision, deeming it discriminatory, but the Supreme Court registrar's office later dismissed their review petition after raising procedural objections. PTI spokesperson Zulfikar Bukhari expressed optimism about the ruling, stating that the party would still proceed with a nationwide march on September 27 to demand access to Imran, expedited hearings in his cases, and his release. Khan has been incarcerated since August 2023.
