ISLAMABAD: In a surprising turn of events, the sisters of incarcerated PTI founder Imran Khan on Tuesday managed to make their way to Adiala jail but were still denied a meeting with their brother.<\/p>\n
The sisters were not allowed to enter the jail by the authorities, following which they returned to the checkpost where they are typically stopped by police.<\/p>\n
Speaking to the media, Aleema Khan said, \u201cUsually, police do not allow us to proceed onward and the jail administration informs the court that we did not arrive because of which the meeting could not be arranged.\u201d<\/p>\n \n <\/a>\n <\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/span><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n \u201cThis time we reached outside the gate of Adiala jail and informed them that we are here,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n She said they made sure that their faces were recorded in the CCTV footage so that the jail administration would not deny their presence.<\/p>\n Asked how the sisters managed to reach the main gate, Aleema replied that they would not reveal how, as in that case, it would become difficult to do the same again.<\/p>\n \u201cWe could have stayed there but police officials asked us to leave because their jobs would be in danger otherwise,\u201d she asserted.<\/p>\n Responding to a question, Aleema said 51 workers were arrested <\/a>during a protest outside the jail last week and efforts were ongoing to secure their release.<\/p>\n \u201cUnfortunately, they have appointed judges who cannot make decisions without taking dictation,\u201d she stated.<\/p>\n \n <\/a>\n <\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/span><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n Aleema also discussed Barrister Salman Safdar\u2019s meeting with PTI founder<\/a> on court orders.<\/p>\n \u201cImran said that there was an improvement after the first injection; however, there was no improvement after that,\u201d Aleema said.<\/p>\n \n <\/a>\n <\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/span><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n In recent weeks, the PTI has demanded that Imran be shifted <\/a>to Shifa International Hospital after his eye ailment<\/a> came to light earlier this year.<\/p>\n The Islamabad High Court has allowed<\/u><\/a> Imran twice-a-week meetings \u2014 on Tuesdays and Thursdays \u2014 with his family, lawyers and other associates. Despite the order, the ex-premier has been largely restricted from meeting visitors for several months.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
