Members of former prime minister Imran Khan's family, including his three sisters, as well as activists from Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) have been arbitrarily detained.
The targeting of his 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.
Amnesty International calls on the Pakistani authorities to immediately release Imran Khan’s relatives and PTI workers, who have been targeted simply for their familial ties, political affiliation and plans to protest.
"It's a peaceful protest... but at the same time, we're extremely worried what's going to happen to the people that come out."
Zulfikar Bukhari, international relations adviser to Imran Khan, says he fears further state backlash against a protest march planned by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party, the party of Pakistan's jailed former PM Imran Khan.
Pakistani security have in the past 24 hours arrested and detained Khan's sisters for 30 days as well as raiding properties of other family members.

I have never heard of a government prepping like this for a “mass casualty incident” against its own citizens. No doubt it has happened before, but this is incredible.
Pakistan has told Islamabad hospitals to cancel elective surgeries and prepare bed space because a non-violent march is planned for 9/27.
These are not just any criminals. These are the people in charge of Pakistan.
This is how they’ve abducted my family members. Masked, armed men dragging innocents from their houses and taking them to unknown locations.
یہ عمران خان کی بہن کے بیڈ روم کا دروازہ ہے۔ جو توڑ کر اندر داخل ہوئے۔ پورے ملک میں کوئی غیرت مند ہے جس نے اس کی واضح مزمت کی ہو۔ کیوں کہ کل کو ان غیرت مندوں نے بہت شور ڈالنا ہے۔ آج انکی لسٹ بنا لیں۔ جب یہ شور مچائیں تو یہ ٹوٹا ہوا دروازہ انکے منہ پر ماریں۔
اگر میں نے قانون کی وائلیشن کی تو اپ کو انے کی ضرورت نہیں پڑے گی میں خود تھانے حاضر ہو جاؤں گا لیکن نقاب پہن کر بغیر وردی میرے سامنے کھڑے ہوں گے تو ہم دشمن دار لوگ ہیں ایسی مزاحمت ہوگی کہ زندگی بھر یاد رکھو گے ایم این اے اقبال آفریدی
🚨🇵🇰 Videos just dropped of police raiding the homes of Tehreek-e-Insaf leaders (Khan party) in Sialkot.
What is this madness?
WTF is happening in Pakistan and why is nobody saying anything?

Imran Khan's sisters arrested and detained and security forces seizing ministers in broad daylight.
The arrests come a week before a planned protest march by Khan’s PTI party.
Pakistan's Interior Minister said the government would do everything it could to stop the march.
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!
“I am enduring the harshest prison term in the country’s history solely for the supremacy of the Constitution and in service of my nation” Imran Khan (July 22, 2025)
Disgusting.
A peaceful protest is set to take place on the 27th. Yet the military plan to use it to make an example of anyone questioning their rule. They are planning a bloodbath.
I commend the brave souls who stand up for their country against this tyrannical regime.
Inshallah the rest of the world will speak up soon. I just pray it doesn’t take an atrocity to make them see how bad things are.
A very scary time to be a Pakistani.
There is little choice left for the people of Pakistan.
Either remain silent while their chosen leader is imprisoned. Whilst his family is detained, his party is suppressed and justice is denied - or come out peacefully and exercise their fundamental right to protest.
You can arrest families and threaten people with violence. But you cannot imprison 250 million Pakistanis or crush the will of a generation.
No regime is more powerful than its people. The world must watch as the people of Pakistan come together to demonstrate their plea for justice, even in the face of threats of violence.
Inshallah, Pakistan’s future will be decided by its people, not by criminals who rule through fear.
Important Message from Former Prime Minister Imran Khan from Adiala Jail - 22 July 2025
Note: This tweet is based on the tweet from July 24, 2025.
“Never in the history of Pakistan has any political leader been subjected to the treatment that I am currently enduring. Nawaz Sharif committed corruption worth billions and was nevertheless granted every possible comfort in prison. In contrast, never before has the innocent and apolitical spouse of a political figure been imprisoned under such inhumane conditions as those imposed upon Bushra Bibi.
I am enduring the harshest prison term in the country’s history solely for the supremacy of the Constitution and in service of my nation. The level of oppression and authoritarianism is such that even the water I have for ablution is filthy and contaminated with dirt, unfit for any human being. Books sent to me by my family have been withheld for months. Access to television and newspapers has also been suspended. I have spent countless hours re-reading the same old books, but now even those are no longer available.
All my basic human rights have been violated. Even the minimum facilities accorded to ordinary prisoners under the law and the jail manual are denied to me. Despite repeated requests, I have not been allowed to speak to my children. Political meetings have also been restricted; I am only permitted to meet certain ‘choice individuals’, while all other interactions are barred.
I am waging a battle against a 78-year-old system, and my greatest success is that despite unprecedented oppression, the public stands firmly with me.
On February 8th (2024), the people expressed their trust in Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf by voting for you even in the absence of an electoral symbol. After such a clear mandate, it is the moral and political responsibility of every party member to become the voice of the people. It will be nothing short of disgraceful and condemnable if PTI leaders waste time on internal conflicts at this critical juncture. Anyone found engaging in factionalism within the party will be expelled. I am fighting for the future of our generations, and every sacrifice I make is for that cause. To create rifts within the party at this time would be a direct betrayal of my mission and vision.
The so-called government formed through Form 47 has crippled the judiciary through the 26th Constitutional Amendment. The way biased judges are now delivering blatantly unjust verdicts under these courts is visible to the entire nation. We must launch a robust campaign to liberate the judiciary, for no nation can survive, let alone progress, without judicial independence.”
عمران خان زندہ باد کا نعرہ لگاتے ہوئے عالیہ حمزہ ملک گرفتار ہوئی تھیں، اور ہمیشہ ان کی زبان پر ایک ہی نعرہ ہے ۔
پاکستان زندہ باد،
عمران خان زندہ باد!
