Imran Khan Transferred to Islamabad Hospital for Medical Evaluation, Returned to Jail
Former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan was transferred from Adiala Jail to Shifa International Hospital in Islamabad following a Supreme Court order for medical evaluation amid concerns over his deteriorating health, including vision loss and anxiety. After undergoing tests, doctors declared him medically fit, and he was returned to prison under tight security. Khan's party alleges mistreatment and violation of court orders, while the government maintains his health does not require urgent care. The transfer has sparked political tensions and calls for his release and legal access.
