Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi Jail Meeting Request Filed in Islamabad High Court
The National Dialogue Committee submitted a petition to the Islamabad High Court seeking permission for former Prime Minister Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi to meet their legal counsel and family members while incarcerated at Adiala Jail. The petition, filed by former federal minister Fawad Chaudhry and other senior figures, argues that the denial of visits violates constitutional rights and international standards, and raises concerns over the health and welfare of the couple. The committee requests the court to order the jail authorities to allow scheduled meetings and to ensure appropriate medical and legal safeguards.
The filing also cites alleged mistreatment by jail officials and urges the court to intervene to protect the political stability and national reconciliation process, emphasizing the need for transparent and humane treatment of the former leader.
