A personal plea to @elonmusk
My two sons have not been allowed to see or speak to their father Imran Khan who has been held unlawfully (acc to the UN) for 22 months of solitary confinement.
X is the only place left where we can still tell the world he is a political prisoner without basic human rights.
Yet every time I post about him, the reach inside Pakistan (and often globally) is throttled to almost zero.
You promised free speech, not “speech but no one hears it”.
Please fix the visibility filtering on my account so we can get the message out! @MarioNawfal

@NaeemPanjuthaa عمران خان نے جیل میں ہی رہنا ہے پھر بھی۔سب کی رہائی کیلئے ،حقیقی آزادی کیلئے ایک سمارٹ سٹریٹجی کی ضرورت ہے۔

@saqibbashir156 عمران خان نے جیل میں ہی رہنا ہے جب تک کہ پارٹی یا عوام منظم طریقے سے نہیں نکلتے۔ڈکٹیٹر کو کٹھ پتلیاں ہی سوٹ کرتی ہیں۔

عمران خان دنیا کی سیاست میں اس روئے زمین پر آخری انسان ہے

جسے ہم کہہ سکتے ہیں وہ بالکل کرپٹ نہیں ہے۔

Prime Minister @andyburnham and Foreign Secretary @Ed_Miliband : how much longer will Britain remain silent?

For three years the father of my two sons, and Pakistan’s former Prime Minister, Imran Khan, has been brutally penalised by his political opponents, in a personal vendetta by Army Chief, Asim Munir,  which according to the UN,  amounts to torture and which  is now taking a potentially fatal toll on his physical and mental health. 

He has endured 3 years of solitary confinement. For nearly ten months now his family has been denied contact with him. He has been deprived of the most basic human contact, denied access to books, lawyers and doctors.

The international human-rights standards are unequivocal. Under the UN’s Nelson Mandela Rules, solitary confinement lasting more than 15 consecutive days is prohibited and amounts to torture.

He has endured this treatment not for 15 days, but for three years.

Pakistan’s own Supreme Court has now intervened: ordering comprehensive  medical treatment, access to his personal doctor, regular family visits and twice-weekly calls with his sons.

Yet those orders are being defied.

This is no longer simply a Pakistani political matter. It is a human-rights emergency.

He has deep and lifelong ties to Britain. He studied at Oxford University, captained Oxford University cricket and spent years playing county cricket in England. His relationship with this country stretches back more than half a century. His charitable activities were internationally recognised, and  include building the only free cancer hospital in Pakistan as well as a university.

His sons, my two boys, Sulaiman and Kasim, are British citizens. They have been forced to watch their father’s health decline from thousands of miles away, prevented from visiting him, denied visas, publicly threatened by government officials with arrest themselves, and even denied court-mandated regular phone calls. 

I have repeatedly appealed to the UK government to intervene. Purported attempts at back channelling have evidently failed. The previous Foreign Secretary @DavidLammy informed me in writing that Britain would not  intervene if my sons, British citizens, are arrested when they travel to Pakistan to visit their father. 

@FCDOGovUK: Britain must now speak out publicly and unequivocally. Demand that Pakistan comply with its own Supreme Court;  restore Imran Khan’s medical access, his right to see his family, end his prolonged isolation and uphold his fundamental human rights.

Pakistan is a Commonwealth country. Britain has a long and proud tradition of standing against arbitrary detention, inhumane treatment and the denial of fundamental rights. Those principles mean very little if we invoke them only selectively and neglect them when inconvenient.
This an appeal to the new Burnham government  to please now do the right thing.

اہم ترین اپیل 🚨
​تمام کارکنان اور رہنماؤں سے التماس ہے کہ ہسپتال کے باہر جمع ہونے سے گریز کریں۔ بھیڑ اور ہجوم کی وجہ سے عمران خان صاحب کے علاج اور میڈیکل سروسز میں دشواری پیش آسکتی ہے۔
​اس وقت عمران خان کی صحت اور ان کا بروقت علاج سب سے پہلی ترجیح ہے۔ تمام ساتھیوں سے تعاون کی درخواست ہے۔

Light Camera Action !

Ironical preposition - what if any of these mainstream media cameras are able to capture face of Imran Khan. Will they be able or allowed to air it?
