“All means of removing me from the political landscape were used. There were two assassination attempts on my life.” @ImranKhanPTI writes from prison that his party is being unfairly muzzled, in a guest essay for The Economist https://t.co/fjxBaqJ87B
“The judges in this country should be ashamed of themselves. Time and time again we have gone to the judiciary. But they have sold their souls for their paid personal privileges. They have sold their integrity. They know they cannot break me, so they turn to my wife. How they can allow this inhumane treatment to Bushra BiBi, simply to blackmail me. She spends 24 hours a day in isolation, except for 30 minutes with me per week - and even that is often ignored. It is unislamic to harm women, children and the elderly - and their motives are plain and clear. The judges are responsible for the justice in a society. They should be ashamed of themselves.”
Illegally Incarcerated Former Prime Minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan, speaking to his sons on phone from Adiala Jail - (March 21, 2026)
It is critical and urgent that Imran Khan be examined and treated at a proper medical facility. Our recommendations to CJP clearly demanded that he be examined and treated at Shifa International Hospital (Islamabad) by specialist doctors, under the supervision of his personal physicians and in the presence of his family members. It is extremely unfortunate that Chief Justice Yahya Afridi expressed satisfaction with the doctors’ visit to Adiala Jail and completely disregarded the family’s lawful and legitimate demands.
What are they hiding?
The extraordinary effort by the government and establishment to prevent Imran Khan from being properly examined, tested, and treated in a reputable tertiary care hospital, under the supervision of his own doctors and in the presence of his family, raises serious questions. Government ministers have falsely claimed that his treatment was delayed because the family insisted on their presence along with his personal doctors. This was not a delaying tactic; it was a necessary safeguard to ensure transparency, proper care, and his safety. The additional doctor who accompanied the PIMS doctor to Adiala Jail was sent ONLY for examination, not treatment. What kind of comprehensive examinations can be conducted inside a jail facility, which lacks the equipment, environment, and safeguards of a proper hospital?
The PIMS doctors, along with a specialist from Al-Shifa Trust Eye Hospital, were sent to Adiala Jail on Monday, 16th February, to show compliance with the deadline set by Chief Justice Yahya Afridi. However, on Tuesday, 17th February, Imran Khan conveyed a message through Bushra Bibi via her daughter, clearly stating that he was NOT satisfied with the doctors’ visit or the treatment being provided, and he specifically asked that his blood tests should be conducted in the presence of his personal doctors, Dr. Asim and Dr. Faisal. We REJECT any medical reports drawn up as a result of examinations conducted in the absence of Imran Khan’s personal physicians and family member. URGENCY IS OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE.
Deeply saddened to hear about Imran bhai. Cricket has given us many shared moments, and as a fellow sportsman who has shared the platform and learned from him, I sincerely appeal that he be treated with dignity. Praying for his good health and strength for his family.

عمران خان نے بیرسٹر سلمان صفدر کو کہا کہ دو ہفتے مجھے آنکھ سے نظر کچھ نہیں آرہا تھا میں سپرنڈنٹ جیل کو بارہا کہا لیکن میرا چیک اپ نہیں کروایا گیا۔
جیل سپرنڈنٹ کس کے کہنے پر علاج نہیں کروارہا تھا ، سینکڑوں کیمرے لگا کر یہ عمران خان کی نگرانی کررہے ہیں انہوں نے جب جان بوجھ کر دو ہفتے علاج نہیں ہونے دیا تو اب یہ ہمیں کہہ رہے ہیں کہ ان کے ڈاکٹر کی رپورٹ پر یقین کریں کیسے یقین کریں ہم؟
ہم نے مطالبہ کیا کہ عمران خان کا علاج الشفاء انٹرنیشنل ہسپتال اسلام آباد میں ذاتی معالجوں اور فیملی کی موجودگی میں کروایا جائے۔ علیمہ خان

These guys have shown how they may have been rivals on the field but will be friends forever
IMP: The list has no Pakistani name on it. Sad
تم کوفہ والے مت بننا
عمران کا ساتھ نبھا جانا
تم پورا زور لگا جانا
جو ہوگا دیکھا جائے
حق باطل پر چھا جائے گا
کوئی سودے بازی مت کرنا
تم کوفہ والے مت بننا
ہے رات کے بعد سویرا بھی
یہ کہتا ہے دل میرا بھی
عمران یہ بازی جیتے گا
بے شک نیازی جیتے گا
تم دل کو چھوٹا مت کرنا
تم کوفہ والے مت بننا

Our demand has been clear from the beginning: Imran Khan has to be examined and treated by specialist doctors in the presence of his personal doctor (Dr. Asim Yousaf) along with a family member present at Shifa International in Islamabad.
The Govt rejected the specialist recommended by our doctors, so they were provided with alternative names. We had given Dr. Uzma Khan’s name to represent our family. We were told that Imran Khan’s sisters will not be permitted and we must provide an alternative name to represent the family. We then gave them our cousin Dr. Nausherwan Burki’s name to represent the family. We are very disturbed when they rejected his name as well.
This is unacceptable! Our concerns are growing as to WHY are they rejecting our family member to be present? Are both names (Dr. Uzma and Dr. Nausherwan) being rejected because they are highly qualified doctors?

@ImranKhanPTI#ComeToStreetsForKhan#KhanNeedsUrgentTreatment
ایک حکومتی وزیر نے اپنے ٹوئیٹ میں عمران خان کے لیے ایک میڈیکل بورڈ کی تشکیل کا عندیہ دیا ہے۔ خبروں سے یہ بھی معلوم ہو رہا ہے کہ عمران خان کو الشفا آئی ہسپتال، راولپنڈی منتقل کرنے کی تیاری کی جا رہی ہے۔ ہمارا مطالبہ شروع سے بالکل دوٹوک اور واضح رہا ہے: عمران خان کو کسی بھی قسم کا طبی علاج اُن کے ذاتی ڈاکٹروں اور اہلِ خانہ کی موجودگی اور منظوری کے بغیر نہیں دیا جائے گا۔
ہم کسی بھی ایسے یک طرفہ میڈیکل بورڈ کو قبول نہیں کرتے جسے رجیم نے تشکیل دیا ہو اور جو ان کے زیر نگرانی کام کرے۔ہم کسی ایسی میڈیکل رپورٹ یا نتائج کو بھی قبول نہیں کرتے جو اس بورڈ کے زیرِ نگرانی ترتیب دی جائے۔ یہ امر ہمارے خاندان کے لیے شدید باعث تشویش ہے کہ عمران خان کے ذاتی معالجین کی جانب سے تجویز کردہ ماہر ڈاکٹروں کے بورڈ میں اس تمام عمل اور شمولیت کی مخالفت کیوں کی جا رہی ہے۔
عمران خان کے ذاتی معالجین کے زیر نگرانی علاج کی تجویز کو مسترد آخر کیوں کیا جا رہا ہے؟
عمران خان کے اہلِ خانہ کی موجودگی پر قدغن آخر کیونکر لگائی جا رہی ہے؟
آخر ان تمام معاملات پر اس قدر شدید مزاحمت کیوں کی جا رہی ہے؟
کیا یہ سب کسی چیز پر پردہ ڈالنے کی کوشش ہے؟
A Govt Minister has tweeted that a medicial board is being set up for Imran khan. Secondly, we are hearing in news that Imran Khan is to be shifted to Al Shifa eye hospital in Rawalpindi.
Our demand has been clear from the beginning. Imran khan shall not be given any treatment WITHOUT the presence and approval of his personal doctors and family members.
We do NOT accept any medical board they set up and control!
We do NOT accept any reports or results they manufacture.
Our family is getting extremely worried as to why they are resisting the selection of specialists advised by Imran Khan’s personal doctors.
Why are they rejecting the supervision by Imran Khan’s personal doctors?
Why are they rejecting the presence of Imran Khan’s family members?
Why such fierce resistance?
Are they hiding something?
Urgent Concern Over Delay in Medical Care for Imran Khan
The Association of Pakistani Physicians and Surgeons of the United Kingdom has raised serious concerns over delays in treatment for former Prime Minister Imran Khan and called for immediate evaluation by expert retinal surgeons.
Mr. Khan has been diagnosed with Central Retinal Vein Thrombosis (CRVT) in his right eye, a condition that can cause permanent vision loss if not treated promptly.
Key points: • Treatment was delayed by about three months. • Permanent damage has occurred; only 10–15% vision remains in the affected eye. • Access to timely medical care is a fundamental human right. • Authorities holding an individual in custody are fully responsible for their health; deliberate delays may amount to inhuman treatment.

ڈاکٹر عاصم یوسف اور ڈاکٹر فیصل سلطان کی تشویش: دائیں آنکھ کے علاج کے علاوہ، عمران خان کو آنکھ کی بیماری سے منسلک ممکنہ دیگر صحت کے مسائل کا جامع اور مربوط علاج کی ضرورت ہے۔ یہ علاج صرف شفا انٹرنیشنل ہسپتال اسلام آباد جیسے ٹرشیری ہسپتال میں ممکن ہے۔15 فروری 2026
مجھے پتہ ہے آپ اب کے دلوں میں عمران خان کے لئیے بہت محبت ہے۔ آج معاملات خالی زبانی کلامی یا سوشل میڈیا پر میسج سے نہیں ہو گا۔ آپ سب لوگوں سے درخواست ہے کہ اپنے بچوں کو فیملیز کو لے کر نکلیں جو قریب ترین نوجوانوں نے روڈ بند کئے ہیں ۔ اب اگر ہم گھروں میں بیٹھے تو شاید خود کو بھی معاف نہ کر سکیں۔
