Imran Khan's party files contempt petition over jailed leader's hospital move
World2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported24m ago
The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party has filed a contempt petition against the government regarding the medical treatment of jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan. The legal action follows an incident in which authorities transported Khan from prison to a state hospital for a medical check-up before returning him to custody.
The petition challenges the government's handling of Khan's health care, specifically asserting that he should be treated at a private medical facility previously designated by the court. The party is seeking judicial intervention to ensure compliance with these earlier directives.
