Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan has filed an application with the City Police Officer (CPO) seeking the registration of a case against Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz and several officials over the conditions of his imprisonment.
The request, submitted through Advocate Tabish Farooq via courier, accuses eight individuals including CM Maryam Nawaz, the Superintendent of Jail, ASP Zainab, and SHO Aizaz—of denying Khan his lawful rights as a prisoner.
According to the application, Khan has been kept in a cell without proper lighting and his family has been barred from meeting him, allegedly on the directives of the Punjab chief minister.
It also notes that Adiala Jail falls under Punjab’s jurisdiction and recalls previous remarks by Maryam Nawaz in which she described Khan as a “fitna” who would be dealt with.
The plea further alleges that ASP Zainab, SHO Aizaz Azeem Raja, and others colluded to harass Khan’s family, including denying his sisters visitation rights in violation of High Court orders.
