In a rare meeting, Imran Khan's sister Uzma Khanum visited him at Rawalpindi's Adiala Jail on Tuesday, amid mounting concerns over the former Pakistani prime minister's health. The meeting was facilitated by authorities, who had previously restricted access to Khan and his family. As PTI supporters gathered outside the jail, Uzma Khanum spoke to the media, stating that Imran Khan's health is fine but that he is being subjected to 'mental torture.' She attributed this to Asim Munir, the country's army chief. Khanum promised to provide further updates after consulting with her sisters. This development comes after weeks of speculation about Khan's condition, with his son Kasim and sister publicly demanding evidence that he is alive. The PTI founder has been in solitary confinement for six weeks, with no phone calls, meetings, or proof of life. Despite Adiala Jail authorities' claims that Khan is in 'good health,' the Pakistani government has faced criticism for restricting access to the former prime minister. The PTI has staged protests outside the Islamabad high court and Adiala Jail, alleging that the government is denying them visitation rights. The situation remains tense, with the Punjab government deploying police forces along Adiala Road to prevent PTI protests. Section 144, which bars gatherings of four or more people, has been imposed in both Rawalpindi and Islamabad. As the situation unfolds, the PTI has called on the government to provide evidence of Imran Khan's well-being and to honor its commitment to allowing family access to the former prime minister.
