Adiala Jail Prisoners Move IHC Seeking Rights Given to Imran Khan

Three prisoners at Adiala Jail, Ilyas Khan, Muhammad Ismail Khan, and Owais Altaf, have petitioned the Islamabad High Court (IHC) seeking private medical treatment and improved family contact, citing a Supreme Court order regarding similar rights for Imran Khan. Muhammad Ismail Khan, suffering from hemophilia and internal bleeding, requested transfer to Shifa Hospital for specialized treatment, while Owais Altaf, with fever and a heart condition, also sought transfer to Shifa Hospital, both arguing for fundamental rights to adequate medical care. Additionally, Muhammad Ismail Khan, incarcerated for nine years, requested a WhatsApp call with his brother in Dubai due to prolonged lack of contact. The IHC has issued notices to Adiala Jail authorities and adjourned the proceedings until August 27.
