Important Message from Former Prime Minister Imran Khan from Adiala Jail - 22 July 2025
Note: This tweet is based on the tweet from July 24, 2025.
“Never in the history of Pakistan has any political leader been subjected to the treatment that I am currently enduring. Nawaz Sharif committed corruption worth billions and was nevertheless granted every possible comfort in prison. In contrast, never before has the innocent and apolitical spouse of a political figure been imprisoned under such inhumane conditions as those imposed upon Bushra Bibi.
I am enduring the harshest prison term in the country’s history solely for the supremacy of the Constitution and in service of my nation. The level of oppression and authoritarianism is such that even the water I have for ablution is filthy and contaminated with dirt, unfit for any human being. Books sent to me by my family have been withheld for months. Access to television and newspapers has also been suspended. I have spent countless hours re-reading the same old books, but now even those are no longer available.
All my basic human rights have been violated. Even the minimum facilities accorded to ordinary prisoners under the law and the jail manual are denied to me. Despite repeated requests, I have not been allowed to speak to my children. Political meetings have also been restricted; I am only permitted to meet certain ‘choice individuals’, while all other interactions are barred.
I am waging a battle against a 78-year-old system, and my greatest success is that despite unprecedented oppression, the public stands firmly with me.
On February 8th (2024), the people expressed their trust in Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf by voting for you even in the absence of an electoral symbol. After such a clear mandate, it is the moral and political responsibility of every party member to become the voice of the people. It will be nothing short of disgraceful and condemnable if PTI leaders waste time on internal conflicts at this critical juncture. Anyone found engaging in factionalism within the party will be expelled. I am fighting for the future of our generations, and every sacrifice I make is for that cause. To create rifts within the party at this time would be a direct betrayal of my mission and vision.
The so-called government formed through Form 47 has crippled the judiciary through the 26th Constitutional Amendment. The way biased judges are now delivering blatantly unjust verdicts under these courts is visible to the entire nation. We must launch a robust campaign to liberate the judiciary, for no nation can survive, let alone progress, without judicial independence.”
There is little choice left for the people of Pakistan.
Either remain silent while their chosen leader is imprisoned. Whilst his family is detained, his party is suppressed and justice is denied - or come out peacefully and exercise their fundamental right to protest.
You can arrest families and threaten people with violence. But you cannot imprison 250 million Pakistanis or crush the will of a generation.
No regime is more powerful than its people. The world must watch as the people of Pakistan come together to demonstrate their plea for justice, even in the face of threats of violence.
Inshallah, Pakistan’s future will be decided by its people, not by criminals who rule through fear.
My mother, Aleema Khan @Aleema_KhanPK, was abducted a few hours ago. We still have no information about where she is being held. Leaving her family in the dark about her whereabouts is indefensible.
If cowardice had a face, this politico-military government would be it.

Imran Khan’s sister Aleema Khan was snatched off the streets of Lahore. Family phones went dead. Her car appeared at a police station. Only then did the regime tell the media she had been arrested.
There was no fresh criminal case that justified grabbing her this morning. They used 3-MPO, preventive detention without charge,to disappear a woman whose only offense is speaking for her imprisoned brother.
This is how Field Marshal Asim Munir and his fellow generals are turning Pakistan into another North Korea, pick up family members first, invent the paperwork later, and dare the world to notice.
"پورے پاکستان کی عوام کو چاہیے بھرپور طریقے سے ستائیس ستمبر کی تحریک میں شامل ہوں ہر گھر کی چادر چار دیواری کے تقدس کو پامال کیا گیا ہے۔ ڈریں نہیں جیل میں سب جاتے ہیں ، عمران خان ہی اس ملک کو مشکلات سے نکال سکتے ہیں۔ اس وقت سپریم کورٹ کے آڈر بھی نہیں مانے جارہے۔ عمران خان کو پھر سے قید تنہائی میں ڈالا جا چکا ہے ۔ ہم سب نکلیں گے تو ان پر پریشر آئے گا۔ علیمہ خان کو گرفتار نہیں اغواء کیا گیا ہے۔ اب ہم پہلے سے زیادہ زور سے نکلیں گے ہمیں نکلنا ہوگا ورنہ یہ ظلم کسی گھر کو نہیں چھوڑے گا"۔

Today, my aunt, Aleema Khan, has been abducted by police in Lahore. Our family has been told nothing about where she has been taken. Her family and lawyers cannot reach her.
This is the behaviour of a fascist government - abducting people, terrorising families and trampling human rights, due process and the rule of law while pretending to stand for democracy.
First they imprisoned my father. Now they are coming after his family.
We demand immediate access to her for her family and lawyers, full disclosure of where she is being held, and her immediate release.
The world cannot keep looking away from what is happening in Pakistan.
“We have not been allowed to speak to our father in 7 months. From what we hear he’s wearing an eye patch from an ongoing blood clot in his eye. He is in a 6x8 cell and given dirty water. He is a man of very few needs. That’s not what we’re worried about. We’re worried about the mental torture.” -@Kasim_Khan_1999 and Sulaiman Khan interview with @NickFerrariLBC on @LBC.

“Cricket legend Imran Khan is rotting to death in a tiny jail cell in Pakistan. It's time Britain used its influence to help free him.”- Former British Prime Minister @BorisJohnson.

The Defence Minister is right. It’s why I have never been considered Jewish by the Jewish community. My mother was a Church of England Protestant. And by this logic, my father was not Jewish either. His mother was a French Catholic. As ever, in attempting to undermine my sons, Pakistan’s Defence Minister has scored an embarrassing own goal.
