PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar expresses serious concern over Imran Khan’s health in prison

Barrister Gohar Ali Khan, the chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), has raised alarm over the health of the party's founder, Imran Khan. Khan is currently facing legal proceedings and has been transferred to a private hospital for medical treatment. Khan's health concerns have caused widespread anxiety across the nation. Gohar emphasized that the party had requested an expedited hearing on the matter and insisted that Imran Khan's well-being should not be compromised.

The August 18 order directed the transfer of the former prime minister to the hospital and the formation of a medical board for his care. Gohar also called for an end to political tensions and urged a swift resolution regarding Imran Khan's transfer to a medical facility. The Supreme Court and Federal Constitutional Court (FCC) have yet to schedule a hearing on the matter concerning Imran Khan's transfer from Adiala Jail to a private medical facility.

PTI Senator Mashal Yousafzai has filed an early hearing application in the Supreme Court, highlighting the urgency of the situation, as Khan remains in solitary confinement with limited access to his family and legal representatives. Yousafzai argued that the delay in hearing the case could have serious consequences for Khan's health and well-being.

The attorney general for Pakistan has requested three weeks to examine the matter, but the three-week period has now expired without a rescheduled hearing date.
