PTI says more of Imran's sisters, family detained by police in Lahore

Party says founder's family members placed in armoured vehicle, taken to undisclosed location

PTI says more of Imran's sisters, family detained by police in Lahore

The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party has accused Punjab police of arresting additional members of Imran Khan’s family, including his two sisters — Dr Uzma Khan and Noreen Niazi. This follows the detention of Aleema Khan, Imran’s sister, who was detained for 30 days by the deputy commissioner of Lahore. The PTI claims that the arrested individuals were placed in an armoured vehicle and taken to an undisclosed location.

The party has condemned the arrest as a "blatant abuse of authority, a violation of fundamental rights, and an act of political victimisation." Imran Khan's son, Kasim Khan, also alleged on X that his aunties and cousins were abducted from their homes, with no explanation provided for their arrest or where they have been taken.
