Pakistan moves Imran Khan from jail to hospital after court order

Pakistan’s jailed former prime minister Imran Khan was transferred from Adiala jail to a hospital in Islamabad after a Supreme Court order, his party said.

Pakistan’s jailed former prime minister Imran Khan was taken from Adiala jail to Shifa International Hospital in Islamabad on Thursday after the Supreme Court ordered the transfer, according to his party. The move came amid growing concern over his health.

A spokesperson for Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party said he had been shifted under heavy security. The party has said his condition has worsened in custody, prompting weeks of public concern and protests.

Khan has been held at Adiala jail while facing a series of legal cases. The hospital transfer adds to the pressure on Pakistan’s authorities as questions continue over his treatment in detention.
