ISLAMABAD: A petition has been filed in the Supreme Court seeking the transfer of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan to a hospital for medical treatment, according to court documents.

The petition was submitted through lawyer Uzair Bhandari, requesting that the Islamabad High Court’s March 12, 2026 decision be declared null and void.

RAWALPINDI: Aleema Khan, sister of Imran Khan, has said that while she is capable of holding a party position, she prefers to support her brother and believes more committed and capable individuals should take the lead.

Speaking to media near Gorakhpur checkpoint close to Adiala Jail, she stated that Imran Khan “was, is, and will remain” the party chairman, adding that the party should continue to function according to his vision, for which he struggled over three decades.

Aleema Khan emphasized that their role as family members is to stand by Imran Khan, not to seek positions within the party. “It is not that I am not eligible for any role, but there are more committed and capable people who should move forward,” she said.

She also urged party workers and leaders to overcome fear and stand firm, saying the public expects leadership to take a strong stance. “Voters have the right to question their representatives,” she added.

Criticizing recent political developments, she claimed the government had requested the party to avoid holding a rally on April 9, and argued that the leadership should have instead demanded that Imran Khan be shifted to a hospital for medical treatment while continuing peaceful negotiations.

Commenting on ongoing Iran-US tensions, Aleema Khan said that trust can only be built when both sides act in good faith. She expressed skepticism over the United States’ position, stating that conflicting signals from Donald Trump undermine confidence in the negotiation process.

The Islamabad High Court has directed that the suspension of sentence applications filed by former prime minister Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi in the £190 million case be fixed for hearing on March 11.

A division bench comprising Chief Justice Sardar Muhammad Sarfraz Dogar and Justice Muhammad Azam Khan heard miscellaneous applications seeking an early hearing of the suspension pleas.

Barrister Salman Safdar appeared before the court and argued that the applications for suspension of sentence have been pending for a year.

He maintained that while the defense was not seeking immediate hearing of the main appeal, the delay in fixing the suspension pleas was causing concern.

During the proceedings, a large number of PTI-affiliated lawyers approached the rostrum, prompting the Chief Justice to express displeasure, questioning whether an attempt was being made to influence the court.

Barrister Safdar informed the bench that Imran Khan is facing an eye-related medical issue and is being taken to hospital for treatment. He further submitted that five miscellaneous applications had already been filed, but the registrar’s office had not scheduled the matter for hearing.

He also pointed out that Bushra Bibi’s plea has remained pending for a year, urging the court to fix the case either on Monday or any date next week.

Accepting the request for early hearing, the court ordered that the suspension of sentence applications be scheduled for March 11.

Separately, Imran Khan’s sister, Aleema Khan, expressed concern over the delay in proceedings, calling the long interval between hearings troubling.

PTI sources claim govt agreed to shift Imran Khan to hospital

February 25, 2026 by Newsdesk

ISLAMABAD: Sources within the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) have claimed that the government had agreed in principle to transfer party founder Imran Khan to a private hospital for medical treatment.

According to party insiders, the opposition had demanded that Imran Khan be kept at Shifa International Hospital for at least 10 days. The government was reportedly willing to allow him to remain at the facility until the completion of his treatment.

Sources said the government had set conditions that medical details would not be made public and that party workers would not be called to the hospital.

It was further claimed that arrangements for the transfer had been finalized between Friday and Saturday night, with vehicles prepared for Imran Khan and party leadership.

According to PTI sources, authorities contacted Imran Khan’s sisters to nominate a family representative. They initially proposed Dr. Asim and Dr. Uzma, but the government reportedly did not accept those names.

Subsequently, Dr. Burki’s name was suggested, which was also rejected, leading to frustration among Khan’s sisters. Sources said the government then proposed Qasim Zaman’s name, which raised concerns among both the family and the party.

When consensus could not be reached, the government allegedly informed the party on Sunday night that the hospital transfer would no longer be possible.

Meeting with PIMS Doctors

Party sources also stated that PTI leadership met doctors at Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) and pledged that details of the consultation would not be disclosed publicly.

No official statement has yet been issued by the government regarding these claims.

KP CM announces formation of “Imran Khan Release Force” following PTI protests

February 18, 2026 by Newsdesk

PESHAWAR: Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Sohail Afridi, stated that the responsibility for managing protests and negotiations had been assigned to Allama Nasir Abbas and Mahmood Khan Achakzai.

The founder of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) entrusted them with preparing a street movement, under which the “Imran Khan Release Force” is being established.

Speaking to the media outside the Supreme Court, Afridi said the force will include members from all PTI factions, including the Insaf Students Federation (ISF) and the party’s Women Wing. The official oath-taking ceremony is planned for Peshawar after Eid, followed by an announcement of the movement’s future strategy.

Allama Raja Nasir Abbas highlighted that the PTI founder’s medical report regarding his eyes has been submitted to the Supreme Court. He described the founder’s eye condition as critical and accused jail authorities of criminal negligence, adding that legal action will be taken against those responsible.

Abbas said the Tehreek-e-Tahafuz-e-Aeen Pakistan had decided to hold a sit-in outside Parliament to protest government negligence. He condemned the arrest of lawmakers and the filing of terrorism charges, calling it an unconstitutional and unjustified approach that suppressed peaceful protest.

He also stated that Mahmood Khan Achakzai had threatened a hunger strike in response to the PTI founder’s eye injury. While some improvement has been reported, continuous monitoring is still necessary. Abbas urged that Dr. Faisal Sultan and Dr. Asim Yousuf be given access, and that the family and legal team be involved in ongoing care.

Abbas further noted that when lawyer Salman Safdar reported that 80% of the founder’s vision was affected, it caused widespread concern. He described delays in treatment as criminally negligent, emphasizing that while there has been some improvement, uncertainties remain.

Finally, Abbas said the PTI founder had sent a message requesting a meeting with Dr. Faisal Sultan. In light of the start of Ramadan, the sit-in has been concluded, but a detailed plan of action for the future will be finalized soon.

Zardari draws contrast between his 14-year jail term and current leaders

February 14, 2026 by Newsdesk

Rahim Yar Khan: President Asif Ali Zardari on Saturday criticised his political opponents, saying he had endured years in prison without losing courage, while some leaders “begin to complain” within a short span of incarceration.

Addressing party workers in Jamal Din Wali, the president said democracy does not permit taking up arms, warning that violence ultimately harms ordinary citizens. “In any conflict, it is your own nephews and sons who suffer,” he remarked.

Zardari stated that he had previously said prison begins to test a person after two years. “Today, there are leaders who have not even completed a year and a half in jail and have already started shouting,” he said.

Emphasising his own experience, he added, “I spent 14 years in prison and endured hardships, but I did not lose hope or determination.” He further commented that some political figures lack the courage to make sacrifices and can only engage in rhetoric.

The president also observed that prison is a place for reflection and worship, saying that prayers offered there are accepted.

Concluding his address, Zardari expressed confidence that his party would win across Pakistan and strengthen the country, adding that Bilawal Bhutto Zardari would become the prime minister in the future.
