KPK Chief Minister Calls for Protests After Meeting with Imran Khan Denied
Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Sohail Afridi called for protests after his delegation was denied permission to meet jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan at Adiala Jail, despite court orders allowing such meetings. Afridi alleged authorities ignored judicial directives and filed contempt petitions without hearings. Khan, detained since August 2023, faces multiple cases, and his supporters claim restricted access and inadequate medical care. Afridi urged party workers to protest and announced a planned march to Islamabad on September 27 demanding justice.
