Former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan was returned to Adiala Jail on Friday following a medical examination at the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) in Islamabad. The transfer occurred after the government complied with a court order issued earlier in the week requiring a hospital check-up for the incarcerated leader.

Khan is currently serving a 17-year prison sentence alongside his wife, Bushra Bibi. His return to the state-run facility rather than a private clinic, as reportedly requested by the court, marks the latest development in his ongoing detention ahead of upcoming legal proceedings.
