Cricket legend Imran Khan is rotting to death in a tiny jail cell in Pakistan. It's time Britain used its influence to help free him

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.

The protocol/security vehicle of Zahid Saleem, Additional Chief Secretary (Development), Balochistan ran over two women in Quetta.

His father is a retired Army officer. His two brothers are serving Army officers.

Zahid Saleem fled the scene. This is the mindset Pakistan’s elite grow up with: power without accountability, protocol without humanity.

To them, ordinary Pakistanis are just “bloody civilians” whose lives do not matter.

Naseem Shah fined 2 crore for a tweet. Imaan Mazari & Hadi Chatha given life sentences for a tweet. Hamza Khan abducted & later charged for a tweet.

It is clear we are living in a fiefdom where the egos of a few people can trample upon the constitution and basic decency.

[Jemima Goldsmith @Jemima_Khan]

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.

Health Is Not a Political Weapon

The reports of Imran Khan suffering from Central Retinal Vein Occlusion (CRVO) are deeply alarming and demand immediate, transparent, and uninterrupted medical intervention.

CRVO is not a minor eye problem. It is a vision-threatening ophthalmologic emergency. If not treated promptly and adequately, it can lead to neovascular glaucoma within 90 days, resulting in severe, irreversible vision loss or permanent blindness—often refractory to both medical and surgical treatment.

Standard, evidence-based management of CRVO requires urgent and repeated intravitreal anti-VEGF injections (such as Bevacizumab or Aflibercept), along with comprehensive diagnostic work-up, including fluorescein angiography and CT angiography of retinal vessels. This is not a one-time injection; it is a continuing course of specialized care that must be monitored closely by qualified ophthalmologists.
It is the same intra-ocular injection about which journalist Asadullah Khan @asadullahkhan_ revealed that as per his sources, Imran Khan was brought to PIMS on night between Saturday and Sunday, and was given an injection into the left eye. As per the news, the doctors suggested surgical management that points towards the fact that the condition might have already been complicated by Neovascularization Glaucoma requiring surgical intervention, which if delayed, can cause permanent visual loss.

I am writing this account to highlight that denial, delay, or inadequacy of treatment in CRVO can permanently blind a patient. This is not speculation. This is established medical fact.

A former Prime Minister of Pakistan and indeed any Pakistani citizen has an absolute constitutional and moral right to appropriate medical care. This right does not disappear in custody, and it must never be weaponized for political vendettas or personal grudges.

The PTI leadership must raise this issue forcefully in Parliament, in the courts, and at every national and international forum. Immediate access to Imran Khan’s personal physicians must be arranged, and the superior judiciary must intervene to ensure that his medical care meets accepted clinical standards, including treatment at a fully equipped tertiary facility if required.

A man who arranged cancer treatment for countless Pakistanis does not deserve medical neglect, silent punishment, or revenge through denial of care.

This is not about politics.
This is about basic humanity, medical ethics, and fundamental rights.

Health is not a Political weapon. Period.
