RAWALPINDI (Nov 11): Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf founder and former prime minister of Pakistan Imran Khan underwent medical checkup at Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) late Tuesday night.

The founder of PTI was shifted to PIMS for a medical checkup after a series of medical evaluations, including one conducted by doctors at the Adiala Jail premises on Sunday, November 8.

Details of the medical checkup are scarce despite YeJahan News Network’s successive attempts to make contact at PIMS, but sources indicate that Imran Khan received treatment and prescriptions for medication at the hospital. Following the examination, he was transferred back to Adiala Jail, where he has been serving his sentence.

Adiala Jail breakthrough: Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi meet Barrister Salman Safdar after months of restricted counsel access

The late-night hospital visit has raised questions about the treatment of PTI leaders in prison, with many observers noting the unusual timing of the medical checkup. The incident has sparked debate about the conditions under which Imran Khan and other political prisoners are being held.

Imran Khan has been serving his sentence since April 2022, following his conviction on treason charges. His imprisonment has been the subject of widespread controversy, with many of his supporters and critics alike expressing concerns about the fairness of the trial and the conditions under which he is being held.
Access to Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi at Adiala Jail remains restricted, as meetings between the PTI founder and his legal counsel have become increasingly infrequent.
Since December 2025, prison authorities have blocked weekly visits from Khan’s family and lawyers. Following orders from the Islamabad High Court in April 2026, Barrister Salman Safdar held a 60-minute legal consultation with Khan, though authorities did not permit Bushra Bibi to attend.
According to Safdar, both Khan and Bushra Bibi are being held in near-total solitary confinement for almost 24 hours a day without access to books, television, relatives, or legal representation.
