ISLAMABAD – Chaos erupted outside Adiala Jail as sisters of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan, along with passionate party supporters, attempted to march toward the prison.
Eyewitnesses described scene of high tension, with PTI workers chanting slogans and pushing against police barricades. The situation quickly escalated into scuffles as the crowd tried to break through the security cordon, leading to a brief but intense confrontation with law enforcement.
Police acted swiftly to contain the protesters, preventing them from advancing further. Undeterred, Aleema Khan and the gathered PTI supporters regrouped and staged a sit-in near the jail, promising to continue their protest until their demands are heard.

The dramatic standoff highlighted the rising tensions surrounding Imran Khan and his party, leaving the area on edge as authorities monitored the situation closely.
In a similar development, Noreen Niazi, sister of PTI founder Imran Khan, lodged formal complaint with Punjab IG Dr. Usman Anwar over alleged “assault” on PTI supporters outside Adiala Jail in Rawalpindi last week. The protest was staged after Imran’s sisters were repeatedly denied access to meet him.
According to Noreen, she and her sisters, along with party members, were peacefully protesting when police forcibly detained them. She claimed that at 71, she was grabbed by her hair, thrown to the ground, and dragged across the road, while other women were also manhandled.
Human Rights Commission of Pakistan expressed concern and urged authorities to investigate the incident and respect the rights of peaceful protesters and prisoners’ families.
