Today, I had the honour of speaking to the 47 countries that comprise the @UN#HumanRightsCouncil urging the immediate release of my father @imrankhanpti and all #Pakistan’s #politicalprisoners. Along with this, I want to be very clear. Like my father, I fully support maintaining GSP+ as the people of #Pakistan should never be punished for the actions of its leaders. But the Pakistani regime must also fully comply with the 27 treaties it committed to follow to obtain this benefit, including the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and Convention Against Torture. @UN@ptiofficial #HumanRights #ImranKhanUnlawfullyDetained
”میں اور میرا بھائی سیاسی لوگ نہیں ہیں، ہم کبھی بھی سامنے نہیں آنا چاہتے تھے لیکن میرے والد کی زندگی کا تقاضا ہے کہ ہم اب بولیں، انکی صحت بگڑ رہی ہے ایسے میں ہم دونوں بھائی خاموش تماشائی بن کر نہیں بیٹھ سکتے“ @Kasim_Khan_1999#ImranKhanUnlawfullyDetained
GSP+ status means a lot to my people; especially our women working in the export sector. It is one of the few mechanisms that ensures checks and balances.
At the 61st Session of the United Nations Human Rights Council, @UN_HRC Zulfiqar Ali Bukhari @sayedzbukhari called for the continuation of GSP+, stressing that suspending it would harm millions while removing one of the last frameworks that enables accountability and oversight.
“When individuals can face years in prison for a social media post, it gives a clear indication of where Pakistan stands today.”

“His life is dedicated to something greater, to the people of Pakistan, trying to pull it out of poverty and rid it of corruption. I don’t think there’s anything else that would make him happy,” @Kasim_Khan_1999.
Sulaiman Khan and @Kasim_Khan_1999 the two sons of Former Prime Minister Imran Khan speak to @Athersmike of the @thetimes about their father’s condition, his unwavering resolve and determination, and their growing concerns over his health as he is denied adequate medical care:
#FreeImranKhan
“اس ملک کے ججوں کو خود پر شرم آنی چاہیے۔ ہم نے بارہا عدلیہ سے رجوع کیا، لیکن انہوں نے اپنی ذاتی مراعات کے عوض اپنے ضمیر کا سودا کر لیا ہے۔ انہوں نے اپنی دیانتداری بیچ ڈالی ہے۔
وہ جانتے ہیں کہ وہ مجھے توڑ نہیں سکتے، اس لیے وہ میری اہلیہ کو اذیت پہنچاتے ہیں۔ صرف مجھے بلیک میل کرنے کے لیے ججز بشریٰ بی بی کے ساتھ اس قدر غیر انسانی سلوک کی اجازت کیسے دے سکتے ہیں؟ انہیں دن کے 24 گھنٹے قید تنہائی میں رکھا جاتا ہے، اور پورے ہفتے میں مجھ سے ملاقات کے محض 30 منٹ دئیے جاتے ہیں، اور اکثر تو اس ملاقات پر بھی پابندی عائد کر دی جاتی ہے۔ اسلام میں عورتوں، بچوں اور بزرگوں کو نقصان پہنچانے کی ممانعت ہے۔ ان کے مقاصد بالکل واضح ہیں۔
جج معاشرے میں انصاف کے ذمہ دار ہوتے ہیں، لیکن اس ملک کے ججز کو خود پر شرم آنی چاہیے” -

(21 مارچ، 2026)
Yesterday I spoke to my father. He asked me to relay the following message:
“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.”
We all know that the reason you are refusing their visas and recommending they travel on NICOP cards (which they don’t have presently) is because that way they will have no British protection if you choose to arrest them on arrival.
My sons Sulaiman & @kasim_khan_1999 applied for visas in January (again… ) to allow them to visit their father @ImranKhanPTI in Pakistan. The Pakistan consulate states that online visa processing normally takes 7–10 working days. It has now been 60 days. This despite the public promise that they could safely travel there to see their father after 4 years, made by both Defence Minister @khawajaMAsif to @mehdirhasan & PM spokesperson @mosharrafzaidi to @SkyYaldaHakim
Meanwhile, they are not allowed to speak to him on the phone, nor send him a letter. They haven’t seen him since 2022 after he was shot in an assassination attempt.
This is an appeal directly to Pakisan’s PM @CMShehbaz to please allow Imran Khan’s two sons to see their father asap, particularly since, by all accounts, his health is in decline.
