Imran’s sisters, lawyers denied meeting at Adiala

Imran Khan's sister Aleema has argued that Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) should not grant protocol to former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif during his visits to the province. Speaking outside Adiala jail, where she was denied access to her brother despite court orders, Aleema claimed that the ruling elite were scared and preparing to flee the country.

She also suggested that Justice Sarfraz Dogar, the Chief Justice of the Islamabad High Court, should summon her if she was committing contempt of court. Aleema accused the constitutional court of being unconstitutionally established to undermine the Supreme Court and keep Imran Khan in jail. She proposed two demands to KP Chief Minister Sohail Afridi: shifting Imran Khan to Shifa International Hospital due to alleged attempts on his life, and starting hearings for Imran Khan's bail applications.

Regarding the Federal Constitutional Court's decision to summon the SC record of the case concerning Imran Khan's transfer to a hospital, Aleema criticized the decision as a sign of the judicial system being deliberately weakened.
