ISLAMABAD –Uzma Khan, sister of former prime minister Imran Khan, has approached the Islamabad High Court seeking medical check-up for his brother’s wife Bushra Bibi, who has been under house arrest since her conviction in Toshakhana case.
Uzma Khan has filed a petition in the high court through her lawyer seeking medical examination of the former first lady.
It was stated in the petition filed in court that Bushra Bibi has been under house arrest, pleading that family physician Dr Asim Yusuf should be allowed to check Bushra Bibi.
In the petition, she requested IHC to issue an order for PIMS doctors to conduct medical examination of the Imran Khan’s wife in presence of Dr Asim Yusuf.
Last week, the PTI raised concerns upon a report surfacing about a deterioration in the health of party founder Imran Khan’s spouse, Bushra Bibi, and called for her urgent medical inspection.
Bushra Bibi is currently incarcerated in the couple’s Banigala residence, which was declared a sub-jail for her, after their conviction and sentencing in the Toshakhana case.
Earlier, Bushra Bibi spokesperson and PTI lawyer Mashal Yousufzai posted on social media platform X that the former first lady met her family, Imran’s sister and the PTI legal team.
“Bushra Bibi has made a horrifying revelation today that she has been given something like acid in her food, which has caused her immense pain for the past five days.
