A delegation of United States officials met with Khadija Salman Shah, a prominent fashion designer and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf activist who was arrested in connection with May 9 vandalism, at Kot Lakhpat Jail on Friday.
The meeting, lasting approximately an hour, focused on legal aspects related to Khadija Shah’s release, according to sources.
The Ministry of Interior had granted permission for the US Consul General Lahore to access Khadija Shah due to her dual citizenship. This facilitated the meeting between the US officials and the detained PTI activist, allowing for a discussion surrounding her case and potential avenues for resolution.
Shah turned herself in at Lahore’s Iqbal Town police station on May 23 and an anti-terrorism court on May 24 remanded her in a seven-day judicial custody.
