[Nusrat Hussain @NusratHussain02]

The world has finally woken up to the plight of Imran Khan — a true leader who had the courage to take on Pakistan’s deep state and its powerful generals head-on.

I just hope it hasn’t come too late. 🇵🇰

[PTI @PTIofficial]

Former Pakistan Cricket Team Captain, Javed Miandad raised voice for Imran Khan. The world knows about his honesty and how he has been kept in jail illegally. It’s time to stop the fascism on Imran Khan!

This elderly man, Alam Shah, has tragically lost his life after spending several months in jail. He was among those accused in the May 9 cases.
May Allah grant him Jannah. Ameen.

پمز اسپتال کا داخلی دروازہ اور ایمرجنسی خارجی دروازے دونوں کو انتظامیہ نے بند کیا ہوا تھا۔ ہم نے دیوار توڑ کر کچھ والدین اور بچوں کو ریسکیو کیا باقی آگ میں جل گئے، ریسکیو اہلکار کا موقف

ایک باپ کی کہانی سنیں جس کو اللہ نے چار سال بعد بیٹے کی نعمت سے نوازا لیکن اسپتال انتظامیہ یہاں مریضوں اور ان کے لواحقین کے ساتھ کیا سلوک کرتی ہے، اللہ پاک ان والدین کو صبر جمیل عطا فرمائے آمین

[Waqas @worqas]

This is an unbelievable tragedy. My dear Pakistanis, don't you understand that your children will keep dying like this unless you take back your country from the evil butchers like Nawaz Sharif and Asim Munir?

[Rodium-A @RodiumInsights]

“بنوں پولیس اور فوج کے درمیان ایک خونریز تصادم ہونے جا رہا ہے۔
پولیس کا الزام ہے کہ ہمارے پاس ویڈیو ثبوت ہے کہ فوج کالے شیشوں کے گاڑیوں میں دہشتگردوں کو بھر بھر کر کینٹ لا رہے ہیں۔ تمام پولیس اہلکاروں نے ڈیوٹی چھوڑ دی۔ احتجاج جاری۔”
یہ کیا خبر ہے ؟ اس میں کتنی صداقت ہے؟؟

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.
