Imran Khan’s sister rejects Pakistan gov’t claim jailed ex-PM’s vision fine

AI Summary

long article 6 min

A government-appointed medical board in Pakistan reported that jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan's eyesight has improved, contradicting earlier reports of significant vision loss in his right eye. The board's assessment, conducted at Adiala jail where Khan has been imprisoned since August 2023, claims his vision improved from 6/36 to 6/9. However, Khan's sister, Aleema Khan, stated that the family rejects the government's claims, citing a lack of trust in the authorities. The family is concerned that Khan's personal doctor and a family representative were not allowed to be present during the examination. They refuse to accept any government claims about his medical condition without independent verification.
