Imran Khan's wife Bushra Bibi shifted to hospital: Barrister Gohar

Bushra Bibi, wife of former prime minister Imran Khan, was shifted to a hospital late at night, according to PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Khan.

In a statement shared on X, PTI chairman said he was informed via message about her transfer and was awaiting further details regarding her medical treatment. He urged authorities to arrange meetings between Bushra Bibi and her family, as well as between Imran Khan and his family. He called for Khan’s immediate transfer to a hospital for medical care.

He said that timely medical attention and family access are basic legal rights, adding that their health conditions are serious and a matter of concern for the public.

Both Imran Khan and Bushra Bibi remain incarcerated at Adiala Jail, where they have been held since their sentencing in December 2025 to 17 years in prison in the Toshakhana-II case, involving allegations related to retaining a jewellery set gifted during an official visit to Saudi Arabia.

Earlier in March, Bushra Bibi underwent a medical examination in jail after complaining of pain in her right eye. She was examined by a specialist from Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences, with reports indicating symptoms including blurred vision, black spots, flashes in the dark, and persistent headaches.
