Imran Khan's Lawyer Gives Adiala Jail 24 Hours to Facilitate Power of Attorney Signing

Analysed 24 Aug 2026·2 sources analysed·Rawalpindi, Pakistan·Politics
Imran Khan's Lawyer Gives Adiala Jail 24 Hours to Facilitate Power of Attorney SigningPreviousNext

Imran Khan's lawyer, Khalid Yousaf Chaudhry, has given Adiala Jail authorities 24 hours to present a Power of Attorney document to the former Pakistan prime minister for his signature. The document is necessary to authorize legal proceedings, including filing a contempt petition before Pakistan's Supreme Court following an August 18 order. Despite repeated requests and visits by the lawyer, the jail authorities have not facilitated the signing, potentially delaying Khan's legal actions. Supreme Court lawyer Uzair Karamat Bhindari is engaged to represent Khan in these matters.
