Imran’s sisters, lawyers denied meeting at Adiala

Imran Khan's sisters and six lawyers were denied access to meet their brother Imran Khan at Adiala jail, despite the Islamabad High Court's (IHC) orders. Aleema Khan, one of Imran's sisters, suggested that the ruling elite was scared and preparing to flee the country. She also claimed that the constitutional court had been established unconstitutionally to undermine the Supreme Court and keep her brother in jail.

Aleema further suggested that Justice Sarfraz Dogar, the Chief Justice of the IHC, should summon her if she was committing contempt of court. Another sister, Dr Uzma Khan, said the judges had insulted the whole country. The PTI Central Information Secretary, Sheikh Waqas Akram, rejected the Federal Constitutional Court's (FCC) decision to summon the record of the case concerning Imran Khan's transfer to a hospital, calling it a blatant attempt to weaken the top court.
