PESHAWAR:

Special Assistant to the Chief Minister on Information, Shafee Jan, has warned of a protest outside Adiala Jail if permission is not granted to meet PTI founder and former Prime Minister Imran Khan.

Addressing the media, Shafee Jan said that all members of the National and Provincial Assemblies plan to approach the High Court on Tuesday. "We will visit Adiala Jail with Imran Khan's family. If we are denied a meeting with his sisters, a sit-in and protest will follow," he stated.

He highlighted that Khan has not been allowed family visits since November 4, raising concerns about his health. Shafee Jan criticized the ruling PML-N, claiming that while its leaders used to meet their "criminal" leader in London and consult with the cabinet during Nawaz Sharif's stay abroad, they now fear Imran Khan's statements and images.

"Imran Khan remains the country's most popular political leader, and attempts are being made to silence him. The people elected PTI representatives on the promise of his release, and the public's sole question is: when will Imran Khan be freed?" he added.
