Govt blames PTI for 'violating' SC order, says family committed contempt by issuing statements

The Pakistani government accused the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party of violating a Supreme Court order by issuing statements and speaking to the media following former Prime Minister Imran Khan's medical check-up at the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (Pims). Information Minister Attaullah Tarar stated that the government had not mocked Imran Khan or made any controversial statements, and that the government's review petition questioned the availability of the medical facility and the legality of Imran's checkup at a private hospital.

The government claimed that all obligations of the Supreme Court's order were completed, including having Imran Khan's sister present during the checkup and having doctors from Shifa Hospital present. However, the opposition party has filed a contempt petition against the government, claiming that the government has disregarded the Supreme Court's order.
