On Thursday, PTI leaders were denied access to meet party founder Imran Khan within Adiala jail. The party had submitted a list of six members — Sameul Yaqoob, Chaudhry Sajid Hussain, Malik Tariq Rikhi, Ahtisham Ali Kayani, Muhammad Irfan, and Parveen Rehmani — to the jail administration for arranging a meeting on Thursday. Advocate Awais Younas Chaudhry, speaking to Dawn, reported that all leaders arrived at the jail at 2pm, the scheduled meeting time, but were informed that they would be notified later.
Despite the meeting ending by 4pm, the group remained until 4:30pm, hoping for an update. However, they left without meeting Khan after their attempt. Chaudhry remarked that it was regrettable that the meeting was prevented, even with the Islamabad High Court’s orders. The court had mandated meetings between family members and lawyers with the ex-prime minister on Tuesdays and with party leaders on Thursdays.
