‘I Can’t See’: Imran Khan’s Sister Sounds Alarm on His Health in Detention

Has former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan been poisoned in prison? That’s what his sister Aleema Khan alleges in a Zeteo Town Hall, where she discusses the state of her brother’s ongoing detention, including concerns of military chief Asim Munir wanting to kill Khan and the reported loss of her brother’s vision in detention. Aleema spoke in detail about the lack of care her brother is receiving in jail and the care his family is seeking to provide for him instead. Her insistence on managing Khan’s treatment stems from a distrust of the jail’s authorities and the government, whom Aleema called “shameless.” Aleema and Mehdi also discussed the support for Khan across Pakistan, her confidence in the leadership of Khan’s party, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), and why foreign governments, such as the US and the UK, aren’t doing more to push for Khan’s release.
