Web desk: Chief Justice Yahya Afridi has directed an independent medical board to examine the PTI founder by February 16. Reports show he has lost 85 percent of vision in his right eye. This raises serious concerns about his health.
Minister Tariq Fazal Chaudhry confirmed that the state provides VVIP level care. Officials monitor his vitals daily and have provided a personal heater. The minister also said the government will arrange specialized treatment at any hospital the founder chooses.
The court has restored his right to telephonic contact with his sons. This ensures that family communication remains a priority alongside medical care. Authorities must maintain full transparency. Justice and health must stay above any political divide.
Officials urge PTI to act responsibly. They must avoid calling standard procedures or routine care conspiracies. The focus should remain on the founder’s health and rights. Political narratives should not overshadow these priorities.
This situation highlights a critical moment where medical needs, legal oversight, and human rights intersect. It underscores the importance of fairness and transparency in high-profile cases.
