Pakistani Court Summons Officials Over Detention of Imran Khan's Sisters
A Pakistani court has summoned two government officials to address the detention of former Prime Minister Imran Khan's three sisters—Aleema Khan, Noreen Niazi, and Uzma Khan—held since September under a public order law. The Lahore High Court scheduled the hearing for October 28 following a petition challenging their continued detention beyond the 30-day legal limit. The sisters' detention coincides with efforts by Khan's party to organize protests demanding his release, as Khan remains incarcerated facing multiple charges.
