Pakistan’s former prime minister Imran Khan’s son Kasim says two more of his father’s sisters, Dr Uzma Khan and Noreen Niazi, were taken into custody in Lahore, along with four cousins.
The detentions follow the earlier arrest of their sister Aleema Khan and come ahead of PTI’s planned September 27 march. Authorities have not publicly confirmed the latest detentions.

عاصم منیر، گدی تو آپ کو چھوڑنی پڑے گی! آپ کی طاقت نہتی 70 سالہ نہتی عورتوں پر ہی چلتی ہے! جو طاقت یہاں دکھا رہے ہو یہ بلوچستان یا جنوبی پختون خواہ میں دکھاؤ نا!
میں جی ایچ کیو نہیں ہوں جو زمینوں پر قبضہ کرے۔ تمہارے جھوٹے الزاموں کا بھی مقابلہ کروں گا۔ کل ہی اوقاف کے نوٹس کے خلاف دعوا دائر کرونگا۔
میرے پاکستانیوں، خصوصاً نوجوانوں یہ اس GHQ کی ناجائز مَلَت سے چھٹکارا حاصل کرنے کا وقت ہے۔
27 کو اسلام آباد پہنچیں!
Responding to the arbitrary detention of members of former prime minister Imran Khan’s family, including his three sisters, as well as activists from Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) ahead of the party’s planned protests and march on 27 September:
“The targeting of Imran Khan’s family and PTI party activists is a flagrant violation of their rights to liberty, freedom of expression, association and peaceful assembly. Such actions speak to the severity of the current restrictions in Pakistan.
“The pre-emptive arrests of PTI members come ahead of planned country-wide protests by the party on 27 September, which government officials have openly vowed to stop. Roadblocks are already being erected in Islamabad. These developments do not bode well, especially given the authorities’ long track record of reckless and unlawful use of force against protesters. A protest cannot be deemed violent before it has even started. Pakistan’s authorities must uphold their obligations under international human rights law to facilitate peaceful assembly and refrain from unlawful measures to thwart these protests."

Former Prime Minister Imran Khan in conversation at Adiala Jail - 24 July 2025
Note: This is a repost of the tweet from 24th July 2025
“We have knocked on every door, but no one has listened. I had asked for dialogue only once, and that too was conditional upon commissions to investigate the events of November 26th (2024) and May 9th (2023) being formed. It was Asim Munir who ordered the shooting of unarmed civilians on November 26th. I reiterate there is no longer any room for dialogue because this group has completely hijacked the entire system.
I have instructed Barrister Gohar, Salman Akram Raja, Ali Amin Gandapur, and Junaid Akbar to ensure the protest movement runs with full force. The objective of this movement must be the restoration of justice, the supremacy of law, and the protection of the Constitution. If we fail to raise our voices in the streets, this group of oppressors will gradually finish off our parliamentary party as well. I am standing firm; all of you must also stand firm.
Eighty percent of the people of Pakistan stand with me and we are entitled to fight for our rights. I am aware that 90% of the electoral fraud took place between polling and the compilation of results. I campaigned for the implementation of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) for two years. If EVMs had been used on February 8th (2024), the game would have ended there and then. I still say today: if transparent elections are desired, EVMs must be introduced, and rigging will end once and for all.”
