Overview
- Rawalpindi police dispersed the sit-in at Gorakhpur Naka near Adiala Jail and took roughly 8–10 PTI activists into custody, including Imran Khan’s sister Alima Khan.
- Officers called in women police, used water spray to clear the road, and moved detainees into a prisoner van after talks with protesters failed.
- Participants said authorities had blocked the route to the prison and declined family and party requests for visitation, triggering the roadside demonstration.
- Alima Khan accused police of rough treatment of women during the operation, while sister Noorain Niazi was reported to have fallen ill at the scene.
- Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Suhail Afridi condemned the alleged use of force against women protesters, as PTI family members pledged to keep protesting over access.
