A team of specialist doctors is currently conducting a medical and eye examination of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan at Adiala prison in Rawalpindi. The prison authorities have tightened security around the facility while the examination is underway.
Imran, who has previously stated that he has lost 85% of vision in his right eye, was granted access to the medical team following orders from the Supreme Court of Pakistan.

His lawyer, Salman Safdar, visited him earlier this week and submitted a detailed report to the Supreme Court bench led by Chief Justice Yahya Afridi. The report highlighted concerns regarding Imran’s health and requested proper treatment.
