National ( The cow news digital ) In a renewed appeal to the international community, Qasim Khan and Suleman Khan have urged the United Nations to intervene over what they describe as the deteriorating health and restricted rights of former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan, who is currently incarcerated in Pakistan.
In a joint statement, the two brothers expressed serious concern about their father’s condition, claiming that his basic human rights have been violated in detention. They alleged that access to family members and personal physicians has been severely restricted, while meetings have been limited or blocked altogether.
“Our father, former Prime Minister Imran Khan, is not in good health. His fundamental human rights have been taken away in prison, and meetings are not being allowed,” the statement said. The brothers further called on the international body to take immediate steps to ensure access to medical care and family visitation.
The appeal also urged the United Nations to facilitate intervention for what they termed an urgent humanitarian concern. They demanded that independent doctors be allowed to examine the former prime minister and provide transparent medical assessments of his condition.
According to the statement, the family believes that prolonged restrictions on communication and medical access are contributing to growing concerns about his physical well-being. They stressed that the situation requires urgent attention from international human rights bodies.
The case of Imran Khan has remained a subject of intense political debate within Pakistan and among international observers since his imprisonment. Supporters of the former prime minister continue to call for improved access and legal transparency, while authorities maintain that all legal procedures are being followed in accordance with domestic law.
