PTI Says Imran Khan Held in Three-Month Solitary, Cut Off From Lawyers

Officials have extended a blanket ban on his jail meetings until February 8, 2026, citing national security.

Overview

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf said Monday that Imran Khan has been isolated in a cell for over three months and denied access to legal counsel.
PTI alleged that even basic necessities guaranteed under the jail manual have not been provided to the former prime minister.
The government initially imposed the no-meetings order after Khan’s public remarks about Chief of Defence Forces Asim Munir and later prolonged it on security grounds.
Khan, 73, has been in custody since August 2023, with multiple cases filed after his government’s removal in April 2022.
Aleema Khan said her brother remains unbroken and questioned his continued detention, as PTI promotes a February 8 protest over what it calls a stolen mandate.
