About

Uzma Khanum is the sister of Pakistan's jailed former Prime Minister, Imran Khan. She is also a doctor. She is newsworthy because she was the first family member allowed to visit Imran Khan in nearly a month, following protests from his supporters. During her visit on Tuesday, December 2, 2025, she reported that her brother is physically well but is 'very angry' and struggling with the isolation of his imprisonment. Her visit and subsequent comments have highlighted the ongoing political tensions surrounding Imran Khan's detention and the demands for his release. Her update on his condition is significant given the limited access to the former Prime Minister and the concerns raised by his party, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), regarding his well-being.
