Imran Khan Undergoes Medical Check-Up at Adiala Jail Amid Health Concerns

Imran Khan Undergoes Medical Check-Up at Adiala Jail Amid Health ConcernsPreviousNext

Former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan, jailed since 2023 following a corruption conviction, underwent a medical check-up at Adiala Jail amid health concerns. A special team from the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences conducted comprehensive tests, including blood pressure, cholesterol, and eye examinations. Khan's supporters allege inadequate medical care has worsened his condition, particularly an eye ailment, while authorities deny these claims. The Supreme Court ordered his transfer to a private hospital, but he was taken to PIMS instead. Khan's party has demanded treatment at Shifa International Hospital and plans protests to press for his release.
