Imran Khan seeks permission from court to meet his sons in Adiala Jail

An anti-terrorism court in Rawalpindi has asked the government and jail administration to respond to former prime minister Imran Khan's request to meet his sons.

The founder of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) filed a petition seeking permission to meet his sons, Qasim and Sulaiman, in Adiala Jail.

In his petition, Khan argued that meeting his sons is his constitutional and legal right, emphasising that the meeting would be of a familial nature.

"I wish to meet my sons, Qasim and Sulaiman. This is my constitutional and legal right," Khan stated.

The court has directed the government, the Ministry of Interior, and the jail administration to provide their responses by July 5.

The hearing has been adjourned until July 7.
