Today, my aunt, Aleema Khan, has been abducted by police in Lahore. Our family has been told nothing about where she has been taken. Her family and lawyers cannot reach her.
This is the behaviour of a fascist government - abducting people, terrorising families and trampling human rights, due process and the rule of law while pretending to stand for democracy.
First they imprisoned my father. Now they are coming after his family.
We demand immediate access to her for her family and lawyers, full disclosure of where she is being held, and her immediate release.
The world cannot keep looking away from what is happening in Pakistan.
Watching her sons walk her down the aisle towards a new beginning after everything life’s thrown at her. Grace , resilience, and a whole lot of love in one frame.
Adding my support here to GC and the other former international captains. I hope the court ordered medical assessment be allowed to run its course, and that family visits continue. I hope Imran Khan is treated with the dignity anyone deserves
"In Pakistan this is a humanitarian appeal because there are increasing concerns about the health &wellbeing of IK, who is 73 years of age and has been held in prison now for more than 3 years, we want to make sure that he gets the proper &requisite medical care."

Mustafa Kamal ran away from the press conference after a man interrupted and called him out: “Hum Iran America ki jang rukwane mein lage hain, hamare 14 bachay jal ke mar gaye, aur aapke yahan tabsaray khatam nahi ho rahe.”
Girls raped and killed every week, a professor hanged his wife, wafflix founder murdered in cold blood, and infants burned alive in PIMS hosp. nursery, all with zero accountability
In Pakistan, there is no guarantee of life. not for women or for men, not even for newborn babies.
At an Islamabad university, an Armed Forces officer allegedly beat a student with a stick. When students reacted, he pulled out a pistol, fired in the air & aimed at students. These hands must be stopped now or one by one they’ll kill everyone at gunpoint.
