Pakistani lawyers demand end to Imran Khan's solitary confinement

Wednesday, 15 April 2026, 04:09 · 1 min read

Senior lawyers from two of Lahore's most prominent bar associations have publicly condemned the solitary confinement of former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan, calling for his isolation at Adiala Jail to be ended immediately. Speaking at a joint press conference, legal figures including Senator Hamid Khan and PTI legislator Sardar Latif Khosa accused the government of political victimisation, arguing that Khan is being denied access to his family, personal doctor, and legal counsel. The case has raised broader rule-of-law concerns, with Khan's defence lawyer warning that he cannot even obtain a signed power of attorney from his client, effectively obstructing his ability to mount a legal defence.
