PTI founder health is a matter of serious concern, party leader Barrister Salman Akram Raja said on Tuesday, claiming that Imran Khan’s blood pressure has been fluctuating, sometimes low and sometimes high.
Speaking to the media at the Dahgal checkpoint in Rawalpindi, Raja said no meeting had taken place with Noreen Bibi, Uzma Bibi and others since August 25, and that meetings with lawyers, associates and family members had also been stopped. These are claims by the party; there was no immediate official response in the report.
What Salman Akram Raja Said
- The last information the party had was what lawyer Salman Safdar brought after his visit.
- It was a matter of serious concern that the PTI founder’s blood pressure was at times low and at times high.
- Any interference with his health, Raja warned, would not be acceptable to the nation or the party.
Asked about JUI-F chief Maulana Fazal ur Rehman, Raja said the party would work with anyone who followed the path of law and the Constitution.
The Last Reported Meeting
On November 2, PTI lawyer Salman Safdar met Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi at Adiala Jail. The meeting was arranged for 4:30 pm and lasted about 40 minutes. It was the first time Safdar had met Imran Khan in seven months despite repeated requests, and he met Bushra Bibi after 11 months.
During the meeting the couple briefed the lawyer about their health and their conditions inside the jail. Safdar said 40 minutes was not enough to discuss all the cases and legal matters involved.
What Happens Next
The party is likely to keep pressing for access for family and lawyers and for information on the PTI founder’s health. Any official statement from jail authorities or the government on his condition would be the next development to watch.
