Pakistan’s Supreme Court today ordered authorities to set up a medical board to examine jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan’s eyes following a report about vision loss in one of them. The apex court also ordered authorities to allow the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder to speak with his children. Hearing a case about the living conditions of the 73-year-old former cricketer-turned-politician, a two-member bench comprising Chief Justice Yahya Afridi and Justice Shahid Bilal Hassan ordered his detailed check-up before 16th February. Imran Khan has been in jail since August 5, 2023, when he was arrested at his Lahore residence after his conviction in a corruption case. Currently, he is incarcerated at the high-security Adiala Jail, Rawalpindi.
