Minister of State for Interior Talal Chaudhry has said that the extent of former Prime Minister and PTI founder Imran Khan\u2019s vision impairment can only be determined by qualified medical specialists, not by lawyers. Speaking to Geo News at Parliament House in Islamabad, Chaudhry emphasized that medical assessments must be made by expert doctors rather than legal representatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He stated that Imran Khan\u2019s lawyer had been advised to prepare a medical report regarding his client\u2019s condition, calling it an example of the rule of law in action. According to Chaudhry, determining how much vision Imran Khan has lost, and how seriously his eyesight has been affected, is strictly a medical matter. \u201cA lawyer cannot decide whether his eye is functioning properly or how severe the damage is. This decision will be made by medical experts,\u201d he said, adding that a specialist doctor has already been sent to examine him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chaudhry maintained that the government\u2019s position regarding facilities provided to the PTI founder has been validated. He said the report concerning Imran Khan\u2019s prison conditions confirms that he is receiving proper medical care and that necessary facilities are being provided in a timely manner. He argued that the government\u2019s claims about ensuring his well-being have now been substantiated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The minister further accused the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) of politicizing the issue of Imran Khan\u2019s health. He claimed that the party is raising concerns about his eyesight as part of a broader political strategy. According to Chaudhry, PTI is attempting to gain public sympathy after failing to achieve its objectives during the February 8 protest. \u201cPTI has no other card left to play, so they are now playing the sympathy card,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He clarified that despite political rivalry, the government does not view Imran Khan as a personal enemy. \u201cThey are our political opponents, not personal ones,\u201d Chaudhry said. He stressed that the government has never advocated denying basic rights or facilities to the former prime minister. \u201cWe have never said that his air conditioning should be removed or that food should not be allowed. He must receive every right granted under the law,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Referring to details mentioned in the official report about Imran Khan\u2019s incarceration, Chaudhry claimed that the document demonstrates adherence to legal standards and proper treatment. He said that the PTI founder is being provided with facilities that are not typically available to ordinary inmates. Citing specific paragraphs in the report, Chaudhry suggested that the document outlines details of his meal arrangements, including how many days he is served chicken and how many days he is served meat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The minister also pointed out that Imran Khan is provided with well-known branded mineral water during his time in jail. He remarked that the menu available to the former prime minister is better than what many average households in Pakistan can afford. These comments appeared aimed at countering claims that Imran Khan is being mistreated or denied adequate facilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chaudhry reiterated that medical issues should be handled by professionals and not be turned into political controversies. He emphasized that the government remains committed to upholding the rule of law and ensuring that all prisoners, including high-profile political figures, are treated according to legal standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The remarks come amid ongoing debate over Imran Khan\u2019s reported vision problems and prison conditions. While PTI leaders have raised concerns about his health, government officials insist that he is receiving appropriate care and that independent medical experts are responsible for evaluating his condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In conclusion, Talal Chaudhry asserted that determining the severity of Imran Khan\u2019s eyesight issues is the responsibility of medical specialists, not lawyers or political figures. He maintained that the government is providing all legally required facilities and accused PTI of using the issue for political sympathy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
