اڈیالہ جیل میں ناحق قید سابق وزیراعظم عمران خان کی اہل خانہ سے گفتگو (یکم جولائی، ۲۰۲۵)
(نوٹ: یہ ٹویٹ یکم جولائی 2025 کو کی گئی ٹویٹ پر مبنی ہے)
”جعلی پارلیمنٹ کے ذریعے چھبیسویں کے بعد ستائیسویں ترمیم لانے کا تکلف کرنے کی بجائے کھل کر “بادشاہت” ڈکلئیر کر دینی چاہییے، کیونکہ ملک پر اس وقت مکمل طور پر ڈکٹیٹرشپ مسلط ہے-
پاکستان کی بنیاد “لا الہ الا اللہ” ہے- یہ کلمہ انسان کو ہر قسم کی غلامی سے آزادی دیتا ہے- پاکستان کو بڑی قربانیاں دے کر انگریز سے آزاد کروایا گیا تاکہ ایک ایسا ملک بنے جہاں ہر شہری کو شخصی آزادی حاصل ہو- مگر یہاں حالات بالکل برعکس ہیں اور ایک مافیا پوری قوم کو غلامی میں مبتلا رکھنا چاہتا ہے۔ میں جیل کی کال کوٹھڑی میں رہ لوں گا لیکن غلامی قبول نہیں کروں گا۔ میرا تمام لوگوں کو پیغام ہے کہ سب کو ایسی غلامی پر قید کو ترجیح دینی چاہیئے کیونکہ جب ہم باہر آزاد ہی نہیں ہیں تو پھر ایسی رہائی کا کیا فائدہ؟ علامہ اقبال کا شاہین اونچا اڑتا ہے، وہ کسی کا غلام بن کر نہیں رہتا-
پوری قوم خصوصاً تحریک انصاف کے ورکرز اور سپورٹرز کو پیغام دیتا ہوں کہ ملک میں جاری ظلم کے نظام کے خلاف تحریک کا آغاز کریں۔ میرے لیے اس غلامی کے نظام کو قبول کرنے سے بہتر موت ہے۔
میری آواز ہر طرح سے دبائی جا رہی ہے تا کہ لوگوں تک میرا پیغام نہ پہنچ سکے اور جبر کے خلاف کوئی کھڑا ہونے والا نہ بچے۔ لیکن میں آخری سانس تک ظلم کے خلاف کھڑا رہوں گا- اور میرا اپنے رب پر یقین ہے کہ پاکستان سے ظلم کا سایہ جلد ختم ہو گا-
جمہوریت میں چار چیزوں کی بہت اہمیت ہوتی ہے: ووٹ کا حق، قانون کی حکمرانی، اخلاقیات اور آزاد میڈیا- چھبیسویں آئینی ترمیم نے ان چاروں کو ختم کر کے رکھ دیا ہے-
۱: ووٹ کا حق: جب ایک ڈکٹیٹر آتا ہے تو اسے ووٹ کی ضرورت نہیں ہوتی تو وہ ڈنڈے کے زور پر ملک چلاتا ہے- جس طرح فارم 47 والی اسمبلیاں بنائی گئیں اور اب مخصوص نشستیں بانٹی گئیں اس سے عوام کو یہ احساس دلایا گیا ہے کہ ان کے ووٹ کی کوئی اہمیت نہیں ہے۔
۲: قانون کی حکمرانی: عدلیہ کو حکومت کے ایک ذیلی محکمے میں تبدیل کر دیا گیا ہے۔ عدالتیں اپنی مرضی کے ججز سے بھر دی گئی ہیں اور آزاد ججز کے ہاتھ پاؤں باندھ دئیے گئے ہیں- ایسا صرف مارشل لاء میں ہی ہوتا ہے۔
۳: معاشرے کی اخلاقیات: اس ترمیم سے معاشرے میں اخلاقیات دفن کر دی گئی ہیں۔ اسمبلیوں میں ایسے لوگ بٹھا دئیے گئے ہیں جو عوام کے منتخب نمائندے نہیں ہیں- ارکان اسمبلی کی کھلے عام خرید و فروخت جاری ہے- اور عدلیہ بھی اسی مافیا کے انگوٹھے کے نیچے ہے-
۴: آزاد میڈیا: ڈکٹیٹرشپ میں میڈیا کو مکمل طور پر زنجیروں میں جکڑ دیا گیا ہے۔ آزادی اظہار رائے پر مکمل پابندی عائد ہے۔ آزاد صحافیوں کو نشانہ بنایا جا رہا ہے اور باقیوں کو خرید لیا گیا ہے-
احتجاج بنیادی جمہوری اور آئینی حق ہے“
Former Prime Minister Imran Khan's Message – July 8, 2025
Note: This is a repost of the tweet posted on July 9, 2025.
“When a nation rises for its rights, no force on earth can suppress it. I remain a free man, even in jail, but my nation is trapped in a prison where there is no independent judiciary, no genuine democracy, and no free media. Every Pakistani must rise up for their true freedom!
For two years, I have remained imprisoned solely for the sake of the Pakistani nation, so that no one can enslave you. Now, the time has come for you to stand up for your own freedom and defeat this oppressive system.
I repeatedly called for dialogue in the best interest of the country. But the time for negotiations has now passed. After the 26th Constitutional Amendment, the rule of law, the Constitution, and the very concept of justice have been buried. Any hope of receiving justice from the courts has been completely extinguished. The Pakistani nation now has only one path forward: a nationwide protest movement. Nothing short of this can pull us out of this quagmire of lawlessness.
A complete roadmap for the nationwide movement will be announced this week. I will have completed two full years of unjust imprisonment on August 5th. One that very day our nationwide protest campaign will be at its peak.
There will be no further negotiations of any kind with anyone anymore! The only path forward is mass protest in the streets, so the nation can rid itself of the puppets forcibly imposed upon it as its rulers.
Let me be clear: any officeholder in Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf who cannot shoulder the weight of this movement should step aside immediately. Those who have submitted to these oppressors must remember: these very people will eventually crush you, and the people will never forgive you either.
Even leaders like Nelson Mandela and Gandhi were allowed to meet other prisoners, read books, and write. I am enduring a form of solitary confinement where I am locked for 22 hours a day in a 6x8 foot cell. Police officers are forbidden from speaking to me. I have been denied books for the past six months. I am not allowed to speak to my children. My lawyers and colleagues cannot visit me. My family is allowed only a few minutes of visitation each week, and many of them are often denied even that. My personal physician has not been allowed to examine me for the past ten months. Even my access to newspapers and television has been cut off for the last week. Books sent by my family are withheld and kept in the superintendent’s office. My wife is also being held in inhumane conditions in solitary confinement.
Behind all of this is the establishment and its pawns. All of this is being done to break me. But I will continue to stand against tyranny until my very last breath.
We restored the constitutional and legal rights of the tribal areas after decades and provided full resources for reconstruction and development. The current regime not only withheld their rightful funds for three years but is now actively working to roll back their constitutional rights, an action that is utterly condemnable. I commend our parliamentarians and representatives for boycotting these unlawful measures.
As for our Punjab MPAs who were suspended for protesting during the fraudulent government’s budget session, the real reason behind it was that their protest against Maryam Nawaz was intolerable for the regime, although it is a long-standing tradition to protest during budget sessions.”
The military regime of Asim Munir abducted Imran Khan’s whole family. His three sisters their children even little infants. This is cruel like Hitler. The world must speak. Shameful how western democracies close their eyes on all these violations of rule of law democracy human rights and freedom of speech. In Pakistan they are rather empowering this regime. The world must speak.
“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.”

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.”
On the Cipher, the Coverup, and the Consequences:
Drop Site News published a document, claiming that it is the original Cipher I-0678 dated 7 March 2022, and it came from a military source. The world now believes that this is the smoking gun. Let's dissect it from there.
Pakistan's establishment spent four years suppressing, prosecuting people over it, claiming that it did not exist. The truth was forced out not from within Pakistan, but by an American investigative outlet. That fact alone is the indictment.
Donald Lu told Pakistan's Ambassador plainly: “All will be forgiven in Washington”, if the no-confidence motion against PM @ImranKhanPTI succeeded, while warning of isolation if it did not. This was not diplomacy. It was a threat and a bribe, delivered in the same breath, to a sovereign nation's ambassador. The NSC in its two meetings clearly stated that this amounted to unacceptable and blatant interference in the internal affairs of Pakistan and that the Govt. rightly issued a démarche.
On 12 May 2022, I as President formally wrote to CJP Umar Bandial requesting a Judicial Commission, open hearings, full investigation and truth be placed on record. This was published in all newspapers. (Please read the letter below, every word carries historic weight in world affairs of this nature).
CJP received that letter. Did not comment. Did not act. The judiciary's silence marked the beginning of its institutional surrender. Had that Commission been constituted, these questions would have been answered under oath: who received the cipher, who acted upon it, who domestically facilitated the foreign signal, and which institutions of the Pakistani state collaborated in the removal of an elected prime minister.
Pakistan would have had the truth. A man who warned the nation would not have been imprisoned on false charges arising from the very document the state refused to investigate. Instead, the nation got four years of compounding ruin.
A regime was not merely changed but democracy was dismantled, piece by piece, demolished with full institutional complicity at every level. Parliament was reduced to a 'stinking chamber of convenience'. PTI commanding the largest popular mandate in Pakistan's history had its electoral symbol stolen, its seats brazenly allocated to others by judicial decree, all to hand a 17-seat party, a fraudulent two-thirds majority.
PTI's workers were tried in military courts. Its voters were disenfranchised. Its leader imprisoned — on charges arising from the very document the state refused to examine. The 26th & 27th Amendments were coercively passed, turning the judiciary into a handmaiden of the executive, an instrument of crooked consolidation rather than a guardian of rights.
Now count the human cost. 44% of our people are below the poverty line, 105 million people that is 20 million more than in 2019. Real incomes have collapsed. GDP growth of barely 3% cannot keep pace with population, let alone absorb new labour. Terrorism is at its highest. Capital is leaving, not arriving. 22 million young Pakistanis are neither working nor studying, 25 million children are out of school. The direction is unambiguous: Pakistan is getting poorer, faster than ever.
These are not statistics. These are children going to bed hungry. Young men drowning on boats to shores that may kill them, because their own country is pushing them out. Mothers choosing between medicine and bread. Every single one of these human beings is a direct, traceable, forensic consequence of the decision made in April 2022 to subvert the democratic mandate of the Pakistani people. This is not an act of God. It is the price of a conspiracy with all its collaborators naked before the people.
Donald Lu issued a threat. He did not remove a government. Pakistanis removed a Pakistani government. General Bajwa in uniform. Some in robes. Some in ‘dastaar’. Corrupt politicians, some with deep pockets from Dubai. They chose a foreign signal over the people and the constitution they had sworn to protect. The perpetrators were not only foreign but local. Let that be stated plainly and permanently on the record.
To those who say, "this is the past, let us move forward", I say that: There is no investment without rule of law. There is no rule of law without an independent judiciary. And there is no independent judiciary that can be built upon the foundations of predominantly crooked judges. The path forward runs through the truth, not around it.
Pakistan's economic misery, its institutional decay, total corruption, national termites eating up everything, none of it is an act of God. It is the direct and traceable consequence of a criminal regime change, facilitated from without and executed from within.
The contents of the cipher as reported are now public. The record is clear. The usurpers remain in power orchestrating my country's misery. The only reasonable and just way forward is unambiguous: LEAVE and let my people LIVE.
It pains me to invoke Iqbal for those who betrayed this nation, but this verse is timeless:
جعفر از بنگال و صادق از دکن
ننگِ آدم، ننگِ دیں، ننگِ وطن
Jaffer of Bengal, Sadiq of Deccan,
Disgrace to humanity, disgrace to faith, disgrace to country.
The cipher has spoken. Now Pakistan must. 🇵🇰
🚨BREAKING: For the first time, the original Pakistani cypher — cable I-0678, the document that triggered the removal of former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan — is being released in full by Drop Site.
Former Prime Minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan is in solitary confinement since October 16, 2025.
He has spoken to his sons only twice in 2025 and once in February 2026 after Supreme Court orders. He has been denied books to read. He has received only 3 of the dozen books that we managed to get to adiala through a judge.
Then, a perfectly health and fit Imran Khan suddenly develops a clot in his eye. He was not provided medical assistance. For two weeks, he repeatedly told the jail superintendent that he CANNOT SEE.
The Adiala Jail superintendent Ghafoor Anjum DELAYED calling in a specialist for three months.
By the time the eye doctor came, the delay caused permanent damage to Imran Khan’s eye. We are extremely worried that his other eye could also develop a clot.
Imran khan has repeatedly sent messages over past few months that he is not satisfied with the treatment and there is only marginal improvement after the first injection in the eye. No improvement since then.
Over the past month, Bushra Bibi, his wife has also developed an eye condition and was operated upon last week.
Imran khan and his wife are being tortured through solitary confinement. We have repeatedly protested, demanding Imran Khan to be examined and treated at Shifa International Islamabad. There is an urgent need to identify the cause of the blood clot. Our worry is that his other eye could also develop a clot unless proper diagnosis is done and it’s treated accordingly
This is inhumane and a violation of all fundemental and human rights of a prisoner under Pakistan and International laws.
We have been informed that my father, Imran Khan, has lost most of the vision in his right eye, with reports indicating only 15% eyesight remains. This is the direct consequence of 922 days of solitary confinement, medical neglect (denied blood tests) and the deliberate denial of proper treatment in jail.
The responsibility lies squarely with the regime in power, the Army Chief and the puppets enabling this cruelty. This physical deterioration is happening under their orders, their watch and their responsibility. They have manipulated and warped the justice system in order to keep my father in solitary confinement.
My brother and I are still being denied visas to see our father as his health deteriorates. History will record this injustice.
We urge human rights bodies, legal institutions and democratic nations to confront this persecution and ensure those responsible face consequences.
Imran Khan has been kept in solitary confinement for six months under brutal conditions, while Bushra Bibi is being held the same way. Their freedom is being deliberately blocked by the Chief Justice of the Islamabad High Court, who refuses to fix their bail hearings.
Imran Khan has made it clear that the judiciary is no longer independent, it is acting like a tool of the government. Judges assigned to his cases are not delivering justice; they are ensuring hearings never happen. The reality is simple: the moment this case is heard, its weak and baseless nature will be exposed, and bail will become unavoidable. That is exactly why it is being stalled. Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi continued imprisonment is due to Judge Dogar, who is openly facilitating a government that came to power by stealing Imran Khan’s mandate.
Through Salman Safdar, Imran Khan has sent a message, his wife is being pushed to the edge by prolonged isolation. He has said he can endure this ظلم himself, but she is being broken to force him into submission. The pressure is deliberate, calculated, and inhumane. He said clearly “no deal, no surrender! It is liberty or death.”
Today, I had the honour of speaking to the 47 countries that comprise the @UN#HumanRightsCouncil urging the immediate release of my father @imrankhanpti and all #Pakistan’s #politicalprisoners. Along with this, I want to be very clear. Like my father, I fully support maintaining GSP+ as the people of #Pakistan should never be punished for the actions of its leaders. But the Pakistani regime must also fully comply with the 27 treaties it committed to follow to obtain this benefit, including the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and Convention Against Torture. @UN@ptiofficial #HumanRights #ImranKhanUnlawfullyDetained
“اس ملک کے ججوں کو خود پر شرم آنی چاہیے۔ ہم نے بارہا عدلیہ سے رجوع کیا، لیکن انہوں نے اپنی ذاتی مراعات کے عوض اپنے ضمیر کا سودا کر لیا ہے۔ انہوں نے اپنی دیانتداری بیچ ڈالی ہے۔
وہ جانتے ہیں کہ وہ مجھے توڑ نہیں سکتے، اس لیے وہ میری اہلیہ کو اذیت پہنچاتے ہیں۔ صرف مجھے بلیک میل کرنے کے لیے ججز بشریٰ بی بی کے ساتھ اس قدر غیر انسانی سلوک کی اجازت کیسے دے سکتے ہیں؟ انہیں دن کے 24 گھنٹے قید تنہائی میں رکھا جاتا ہے، اور پورے ہفتے میں مجھ سے ملاقات کے محض 30 منٹ دئیے جاتے ہیں، اور اکثر تو اس ملاقات پر بھی پابندی عائد کر دی جاتی ہے۔ اسلام میں عورتوں، بچوں اور بزرگوں کو نقصان پہنچانے کی ممانعت ہے۔ ان کے مقاصد بالکل واضح ہیں۔
جج معاشرے میں انصاف کے ذمہ دار ہوتے ہیں، لیکن اس ملک کے ججز کو خود پر شرم آنی چاہیے” -
ناحق قید سابق وزیرِ اعظم پاکستان عمران خان کا اڈیالہ جیل سے اپنے بیٹوں سے ٹیلی فونک گفتگو کے دوران پیغام
(21 مارچ، 2026)
Yesterday I spoke to my father. He asked me to relay the following message:
“The judges in this country should be ashamed of themselves. Time and time again we have gone to the judiciary. But they have sold their souls for their paid personal privileges. They have sold their integrity. They know they cannot break me, so they turn to my wife. How they can allow this inhumane treatment to Bushra BiBi, simply to blackmail me. She spends 24 hours a day in isolation, except for 30 minutes with me per week - and even that is often ignored. It is unislamic to harm women, children and the elderly - and their motives are plain and clear. The judges are responsible for the justice in a society. They should be ashamed of themselves.”
