Islamabad: The Supreme Court has ordered the transfer of PTI
founder Imran Khan to Shifa Hospital.
In ordering Khan's transfer to Shifa Hospital until the next
hearing, the Supreme Court stated that a medical board must be convened for
him, that his transfer to the hospital must be conducted under strict security
measures, and that it must not disrupt public order outside the hospital.
During the hearing regarding the case concerning the PTI
founder's meeting and treatment, Supreme Court Justice Shahid Waheed questioned
the reason for withholding Khan's medical records. The material provided was
only a summary of the medical report.
Justice Shahid Waheed ordered that Khan's full medical
records be submitted before the next hearing and noted that if the records
reached the court, they would not be kept confidential.
Justice Naeem Akhtar Afghan asked, "Your report
indicates that an angiogram should be performed. Can an angiogram be performed
in prison?" In response, the Islamabad Prosecutor General stated that the
meeting could take place outside the hospital.
Judge Shahid Waheed declared that the PTI founder had
neither a normal pulse nor heart rate. According to medical reports, his vital
organs were beginning to be affected.
The judge asked, "What is your opinion regarding the
meeting with the sisters?" The Islamabad Prosecutor General replied that
if anyone broke the law, the meeting would not take place. The court countered,
"If he breaks the law, will you also hold it?" Meeting with the
sisters is not a favor, but a fundamental right. It is not the role of the
state to break the law. Why are the instructions of the Islamabad High Court
not being followed?
The Islamabad Prosecutor General informed the court that,
over three years, 48 meetings had been held between the sisters and the PTI
founder. In response, the High Court requested that the PTI founder provide
full details of the meetings held during that period. The court also requested
a recording of the PTI founder's conversation with the children.
