IHC restores twice-weekly meetings for Imran Khan

SuchTV  |  Mar 24, 2025

The latest development in the legal saga pertaining to the former prime minister's visitation rights as IHC Acting Chief Justice Justice Sarfraz Dogar heard the combined pleas on the said issue.

The three-member bench, which also includes Justice Arbab Muhammad Tahir and Justice Muhammad Azam Khan, was formed by Justice Dogar last week who also merged various petitions about Khan's meeting rights in response to a plea filed by jail Superintendent Anjum.

Before today, the Adiala jail Superintendent Abdul Ghafoor Anjum, using his discretionary powers, had limited the former premier's meetings to Tuesdays.

The issue of access to the incarcerated PTI founder has been a point of contention in recent times with various people moving the court to seek its permission to meet him.

The IHC, in this regard, had previously sought Khan's virtual appearance via video link and later ordered authorities to produce him before the court during a hearing of a plea filed by PTI's Mashal Yousafzai.

However, the cricketer-turned-politician was not produced before the court with the Islamabad advocate general (AG) citing security concerns as its reason.

The issue further escalated after IHC's Justice Sardar Ejaz Ishaq Khan initiated suo motu contempt proceedings after the case was delisted and transferred to another bench.
