ایک قلم فروش صحافی ایک جسم فروش طوائف سے زیادہ بدکردار ہوتا ہے، کیونکہ طوائف صرف اپنا جسم بیچتی ہے جبکہ ضمیر فروش صحافی اپنا ضمیر، قلم اور سچائی بیچ کر پورے معاشرے اور ریاست کو نقصان پہنچاتا ہے۔ سعادت حسن منٹو

اور چھیڑو کرکٹ دنیا کو ۔۔۔
کل سکائی نیوز اور آج اسٹریلیوی کپتان پیٹ کمنز کی ٹویٹ نے
کہرام مچا دیا ہے ابھی یہ سلسلہ شروع ہوا ہے
کیونکہ پیٹ کمنز موجودہ کھیلنے والے کھلاڑی ہیں سابق نہیں
ابھی مزید کھلاڑیوں کی آواز انی ہے
مجھے لگتا ہے گریگ چیپل نے پورا ہوم ورک کیا ہے اور دنیائے کرکٹ کو باخبر کیا ہے عمران خان کے ساتھ جو سلوک ہورہا ہے
شکریہ گریگ چیپل شکریہ پیٹ کمنز

🇵🇰 Former PM Imran Khan’s sons say they’re genuinely scared they could lose their father in prison.
Kasim and Sulaiman spoke to Sky Sports at Lord’s, with their father’s portrait hanging right behind them. They haven’t seen him since 2022 and haven’t even spoken to him since March.
And what they’re describing is brutal.
They say he now spends more than 23 hours a day alone in a small cell, has lost 80% of the vision in one eye and is struggling with his health.
Kasim: “They are just blatantly trying to kill him in there.”
Even after the Supreme Court ordered him moved to a private hospital, his sons say he was taken to a government facility for a few hours and then sent straight back to jail.
The government of course denies mistreating him and says he has food, books, TV and space to exercise.
And here’s where it gets even more frustrating. After his sons spoke about all of this, the Pakistan Cricket Board complained to Sky over the interview.
Forget the politics for a second. These are two sons who just want to see their dad, talk to him and know if he’s okay.

One World Cup. Two universities. Three cancer hospitals. Thirty years of political struggle and family sacrifice. Four bullets. Three years in jail. No crime. Still standing. One man. One eye. One mission. Zero surrender.
Imran Ahmed Khan Niazi, what a man. No one can be like you. ❤️
Michael Atherton, no words can truly express our gratitude for standing up for Imran Khan, especially when even many of his own have chosen silence. Your courage means a great deal. Pakistan owes you one.

Extremely thankful to International Media, cricket captains & human rights activists for raising voice against Torture on Imran Khan.
Here is the another big development as @SkySports airs this 18 mins interview of @Kasim_Khan_1999 & Sulaiman Khan with @Athersmike on how IK’s human rights are being violated blatantly in Pakistan by Asim Munir and Team!
مجھے اس خاتون پر قطعاً حیرت نہیں ہوئی پچھلے چار سال سے مملکت خداداد میں چادرچاردیواری کا تقدس سرعام پائمال کیا گیا خواتین کے سروں سے دوپٹے کھینچے گئے مگر اس خاتون کی زبان اس ظلم پر تالو کے ساتھ چمٹ گئی۔ اگر اس بات کو درست مان لیا جائے تو پھر غیرت کے نام پر قتل ہو رہے ہیں حنا جاوید، حنا آفریدی اور خاتون ٹک ٹاکر کو قتل کیا گیا اسے بھی درست مان لیں۔
جب تحریک انصاف کی نہتی خواتین کو گھسیٹا گیا،ان کے گھروں پر چھاپے مار کر چادر چار دیواری کا تقدس پامال کیا گیا تو ان کے شوہروں،بھائیوں اور والد کے پاس فائرنگ کا اختیار تھا؟
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.
میں دنیا کے تمام رہنماؤں سے دست بستہ اپیل کرتا ہوں کہ پاکستان کے سابق وزیرِاعظم @ImranKhanPTI کی زندگی اور آزادی کو ایک انتہائی انتقامی حکومت کے چنگل سے بچایا جائے۔
میں دیگر سربراہانِ مملکت سے اپیل کرتا ہوں کہ عمران خان کو بھی اسی طرح بچانے کے لیے آگے بڑھیں، جیسے دنیا نے ایک وقت میں نیلسن منڈیلا کو بچانے کے لیے آواز اٹھائی تھی۔
عمران خان نے نہ صرف کھیلوں کی دنیا میں نمایاں خدمات انجام دی ہیں بلکہ وہ ایک عظیم انسان دوست بھی ہیں۔ اس کے علاوہ انہوں نے پاکستان جیسے تیسری دنیا کے ملک کی سیاست کو کرپشن اور مفادات کی سیاست سے پاک کرنے کے لیے بھی بھرپور جدوجہد کی ہے۔
A group of 21 former international cricket captains, including India greats Sunil Gavaskar and Kapil Dev, have renewed their appeal to Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, urging his government to ensure "humane treatment and proper medical care" for former Pakistan captain and prime minister Imran Khan.
