Imran’s sisters, KP CM demand meeting with incarcerated PTI founder, threaten sit-in – Pakistan

ISLAMABAD: Sisters of PTI founder and former prime minister Imran Khan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa chief minister were again denied a meeting with the ex-prime minister at Adiala jail on Tuesday.

Imran’s sister Aleema Khan told reporters that being denied a meeting was “nothing but contempt of court” as they were not allowed to meet Imran despite clear orders from the Islamabad High Court (IHC) that family meetings should be held every Tuesday and Thursday.

Asked about the sit-in, she said that last time a police officer asked them to leave and assured that he would not repeat this request the next time she came to the prison.

“I want to stage an all-night sit-in,” Aleema said.

KP CM Sohail Afridi urged parliamentarians across Pakistan to stand in solidarity with Imran’s sisters, adding that he was in Rawalpindi at the invitation of Aleema.

“These people are shameless. They paralyzed the whole system after the constitutional amendment,” he said. “It is regrettable that the justice system is also paralyzed. We now have only one option: take to the streets.”

PTI general secretary Salman Akram Raja said the last meeting with Imran was with one of the sisters in December, which was unacceptable, adding that discussions within the party were ongoing.

“Two days ago, there was also a meeting with the sisters in Lahore. These are difficult and emotional times. We will move forward with wisdom,” he added.

PTI denounces ban on political party Gilgit Baltistan

Meanwhile, Sheikh Waqas Akram condemned the federal government and the Gilgit Baltistan Election Commission (GB) for banning the Gilgit Baltistan Democratic Party, which entered into an electoral alliance with the PTI for the 2026 elections.

Denouncing the ban in the strongest possible terms, the PTI spokesperson said democracy in Britain was being “strangled” in the run-up to the next general election.

“This is not about governance; it is a pure and simple political vendetta and a systematic assassination of democracy,” he said.

“The government and the Election Commission have once again exposed their authoritarian agenda by crushing the only alternative platform that sought to give the people of Gilgit Baltistan a real voice through its alliance with the PTI.

Akram warned that the move constitutes a blatant violation of the Constitution and all democratic norms.

He made it clear that the Constitution unequivocally guarantees every political party the right to organize, run for office and reach the electorate.

“Any attempt to suppress a party on the sole basis of its ideological or political affiliation is a criminal negation of democratic principles and a betrayal of the constitutional responsibilities of the State,” he said.

The party’s central information secretary also demanded that the ban be lifted immediately and unconditionally, adding that full transparency must be ensured in the electoral process, with equal opportunities and a level playing field for all political parties.

He further stressed that the Election Commission must discharge its constitutional duty with absolute impartiality and without any pressure from the Federal Government.
