Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan has been shifted to Rawalpindi’s Adiala jail from Attock district jail after a lot of drama. Khan was finally moved to Adiala a day after the Islamabad High Court’s (IHC) order.

Imran Khan was shifted to Adiala jail under tight security. There were 18 vehicles in a convoy, including 15 vehicles of Islamabad Police. The PTI chairman was transferred from Attock to Adiala jail via the Motorway.

According to jail officials, Imran has been kept in a barrack in Adiala where Nawaz Sharif was also kept. The former prime minister has B-class facilities in Adiala jail.

On Monday, IHC Chief Justice Aamir Farooq issued an order to shift the PTI chief from Attock to Adiala jail. The IHC chief justice remarked that Imran Khan deserves a better class in jail as he is the former prime minister of Pakistan.

His rights should not be violated, Justice Farooq stated.
