PTI chief updates on Imran Khan’s health in jail

Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Barrister Gohar Khan said on Tuesday that former Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan was in good health after doctor teams examined him.

A team from the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS), including an ENT specialist and a medical specialist, visited Adiala Jail Rawalpindi and inspected Imran Khan’s health condition.

Barrister Gohar Khan on X (formerly Twitter) wrote, “We were informed a while ago that Alhamdulillah, Khan Saab is in good health and had exercised for an hour today. We shall get medical reports from them soon, and I will share with you, InshaAllah.”

He also conveyed his appreciation to the PTI workers and supporters who had shown concern for the party founder’s well-being.

The development came after PTI leadership postponed the protests at Islamabad amid the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit at the federal capital after the assurance of Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi that the doctors would examine the founder of PTI.

In another tweet, the party chairman wrote, “He is otherwise fit & healthy and does not need any further medication at the moment.”

However, the PTI founder’s personal physician, Dr Asim Yusuf, was not allowed to meet Imran Khan after waiting outside the Adiala jail for more than one hour and despite submitting their credentials to the security staff.
