Imran Khan Should Be Shifted to Shifa Hospital Immediately, Demands Barrister Gohar

Islamabad: PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan has reiterated his demand that PTI founder Imran Khan be moved to Shifa Hospital for his health and treatment.

In a statement, he said media reports indicated that the PTI founder had been taken to PIMS Hospital last night.

Barrister Gohar called for the immediate implementation of the Supreme Court’s order of 18 August, noting that the court had directed that the PTI founder be moved to Shifa Hospital for medical examination and treatment.

He said a medical board should be formed for the PTI founder’s treatment, including his personal physician and one member of his family.

The PTI chairman demanded that the PTI founder be shifted to Shifa Hospital immediately and that the Supreme Court’s order be implemented without delay.

Party expresses concern

In a separate party statement, concern was expressed over Imran Khan’s health and the medical facilities being provided to him.

According to the statement, the state bears full responsibility for Imran Khan’s safety and health. It said a person’s health cannot be used as a tool for political bargaining, nor can the medical treatment of a former prime minister be reduced to a mere formality.
