Govt fully implemented SC order on Imran’s medical check-up, says Tarar

Accuses PTI of politicising Imran’s health and committing contempt of court

Govt fully implemented SC order on Imran’s medical check-up, says Tarar

Information Minister Attaullah Tarar accused the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) of politicizing Imran Khan's health, stating that the government had fully implemented the Supreme Court's order regarding his medical examination. Earlier this week, the Supreme Court ordered Imran's transfer to Shifa International Hospital for treatment and directed the government to arrange weekly meetings between him and his family.

The government filed a review petition before the Supreme Court, describing their order as "discriminatory in nature". However, on X, Tarar revealed Imran was taken to Pims for a medical examination instead and declared medically fit, returning to Adiala jail. The move drew criticism from opposition parties.
