@soldierspeaks @HarvardHBS These students are most probably relatives of army personnel. Otherwise no one in their right mind would ever engage in any activity that involved being lectured by a dictator on leadership.

@wasim75189811 People walk around with free Palestine T-shirts all the time in England. However, I doubt that you would be allowed in Pakistan.

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.

What is happening to @imrankhanPTI is an abuse on every conceivable level.
Passively monitoring the situation is plainly not enough. It is time for active diplomacy.

@adeelraja Asad Umar left Imran Khan and politics to save his ass, so why is he sitting here?

Today marks 3 years since Imran Khan was unjustly incarcerated.

He is still being denied basic human rights and remains in solitary confinement.

His abominable treatment is an affront to democracy. I will continue to demand the release of all political prisoners, everywhere.

[Yasrah Naveed @yasrahn]

@escodarrr @5Pillarsuk The current regime is so scared of him they had to create fake cases to keep him in jail. He has not had the right to a fair trial. Even scared of the public getting a glimpse of him.

[Yasrah Naveed @yasrahn]

@ZizMukhtar @KlasraRauf How did he put the country at stake?

[Yasrah Naveed @yasrahn]

@blueshades2020 @mindgames99 @KlasraRauf So let us know what the current regime has fixed.

[Yasrah Naveed @yasrahn]

@FGilani73048 @Asad_Umar The traits mentioned in your tweet align with Asim Munir and Maryam Nawaz's personalities. Oh and you forgot to mention fragile ego's which both Maryam and Munir have.

[Kasim Khan @Kasim_Khan_1999]

It has now been around 1,100 days since my father, Imran Khan, was imprisoned, and my brother and I haven’t heard his voice since March. For months, we’ve been denied contact with him. We remain in the dark about his access to healthcare as his eyesight continues to deteriorate. He urgently needs medical attention, and with no family or legal access, we don’t even get any second hand information or reassurance.

I’ve found myself especially missing him recently. I want to speak to him about mundane things like my cricket, books I’ve been reading and what new movies are good. I understand the people of Pakistan want their chosen leader free, but I miss my father more than ever.

But this is not just about a father. It is about Pakistan, and its future. A rigged, authoritarian regime continues to crush political opposition, undermine democratic institutions, and deny millions of Pakistanis their right to freely choose their leaders, whilst terrorising those who speak their beliefs.

I once again plea to the international community to not look away. Silence in the face of injustice only enables it.

Sulaiman & Kasim Khan appear on Channel4 News explaining what Imran Khan is suffering from- Why so less Retweets?

[PTI @PTIofficial]

“Our father has lost 80% of his vision. He’d been complaining about his eye for months but was getting ignored. It’s only now been treated later then it should have been. It’s not in good condition. We have no visibility into why it’s occurred. They’ve given us no medical reports. Everything is covered up.” @Kasim_Khan_1999 and Sulaiman Khan speak to @Channel4News.

Hussam Abu Safieh is one of the Palestinian doctors (among 95 other doctors) that will be killed by the “Israeli death penalty for hostages.”

Do not let them murder him. Repost this.

[Noreen Niazi @Noreen_KhanPK]

The last person who met Imran Khan last week said that his “Eye Complication Continues with Major Impairment & little improvement” and that “he is being kept in Torturous Solitary Confinement for Almost 24 Hrs with no access to Books and TV”
