Imran Khan, former Pakistani prime minister and cricket legend, has been ordered to a hospital after his family raised urgent health concerns while he’s been jailed since last August. Facing politically contested convictions, Khan was moved to Shifa International Hospital within 48 hours, with a medical panel overseeing his care until September 16. His party welcomed the move, calling it long overdue given his deteriorating condition—including severe vision loss in his right eye. The court emphasized prisoners’ right to health and safety, while ordering supporters to stay away from the hospital to avoid unrest. No official government response has been issued, and Khan’s family hopes for full implementation of the order and visitation rights. This legal and political drama underscores the mounting tensions surrounding Pakistan’s most polarizing figure.
