  "summary": "The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has ruled that the solitary confinement of PTI founder Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi in Adiala jail is maintainable and directed the authorities to ensure they are not subjected to such conditions. The court's decision, reserved on August 6, aligns with the principles established in the Begum Nusrat Bhutto and Begum Shamim Afridi cases. The IHC ordered the jail authorities to facilitate a meeting between Imran and Bushra in line with prison rules, and allow Imran's family members to meet him as permitted by the jail regulations. Additionally, the court directed the implementation of telephone conversations between Imran and his sons.",
