Key points
- Imran Khan’s lawyer says the jailed PTI founder is in good health after a three-hour Adiala jail meeting.
- The visit was permitted by the Supreme Court to assess living conditions, with a report due to the court by Wednesday.
PTI founder and former prime minister Imran Khan is in stable health, his counsel Barrister Salman Safdar said after meeting him at Central Jail Rawalpindi (Adiala) on Tuesday.
Safdar said the visit lasted around three hours and that jail authorities allowed him full access for the court-mandated purpose, but he would refrain from making further public comments until a formal report is submitted.
The meeting followed Supreme Court directions allowing Safdar to inspect Khan’s living conditions and provide written observations to the court. The report is expected to be filed by Wednesday.
The case background includes earlier legal proceedings on access requests and a recent medical visit for a brief eye procedure, with PTI maintaining that prisoner rights and visitation safeguards should be ensured under jail rules and applicable law.
