Overview
- Aleema Khan publicly called weekend social-media reports that an unnamed former army chief visited Imran Khan in Adiala Jail “totally fake” and said she confirmed the claim’s falsity with Barrister Gohar Ali Khan.
- She said authorities again denied her a visit when she came to the prison and accused officials of keeping Imran in isolation with restricted communication, limited access to books and television, and inadequate eye treatment.
- Aleema invoked a full-bench court order that she says entitles Imran to weekly visits for up to 18 people, specifying family, lawyers and party representatives on set days, and said those rights are not being implemented.
- Khyber Pakhtunkhwa officials have pressed for Imran’s transfer to Shifa International Hospital for treatment and warned of political protests if access continues to be blocked, including a planned PTI sit-in outside the National Assembly on June 10.
- There is no independent confirmation that any former army chief met Imran; the story originated on social platforms and has been used by PTI to press wider claims about detention conditions while officials say legal procedures are being followed.
