Petition Filed in Islamabad High Court to Declare Imran Khan’s X Posts Illegal

Investigators have visited Adiala Jail to question him, without success.

Overview

  • Citizen Ghulam Murtaza Khan filed a 76-page Article 199 petition naming the NCCIA, PTA, Adiala Jail’s superintendent, Imran Khan, and PTI’s central secretariat as respondents.
  • The filing asks the court to declare posts from Imran Khan’s official X account during his judicial custody unlawful and unconstitutional.
  • It seeks orders directing the NCCIA and PTA to identify who operates the account, restrain those individuals, and block or remove the disputed posts.
  • The petition requests enforcement of prison rules to stop convicts from running social media accounts and asks the court to bar PTI from re-circulating the posts.
  • Reports say NCCIA teams visited Adiala Jail to question Khan about the account, but he declined without his lawyers present, and no court ruling on the petition has been reported.
