Bushra Bibi, the wife of incarcerated ex-premier and PTI founder Imran Khan, has been taken to the hospital, according to party chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan.
Bushra Bibi was sentenced last year to 17 years’ imprisonment in the Toshakhana-2 case along with Imran. The PTI has expressed concern over reports about her health, demanding that she be taken to a hospital for diagnosis and treatment.
“I was informed [through] a message that Bushra [Bibi] had been shifted to the hospital last night and that I would be briefed about the treatment,” Gohar said on X.
He added that he would request that her family members be allowed to meet her, as well as that Imran Khan’s family be allowed to meet with him and that he be moved to the hospital for treatment.
“The earlier, the better. It is their basic right according to law,” he said. “Their health is too serious and every Pakistani is deeply concerned.
Maryam Riaz Wattoo, Bushra Bibi’s sister, reported not long after that the family had reached Islamabad.
“She will be going through a crucial surgery today. Please pray for her,” she said on X, without elaborating on the details.
