00:00Pakistan's former Prime Minister Imran Khan has been declared medically fit and returned to prison after undergoing an overnight examination
00:08at the hospital.
00:09A 73-year-old was transferred for medical check-up during the night of August 20 and 21 following a
00:16Supreme Court order issued earlier this week.
00:20Parliamentary Affairs Minister Tariq Fazal Shaudhri said a team of specialists examined Khan and concluded that he was medically fit.
00:28Khan's sister Uzma Khanum attended the examination and said her brother was stable and had also been declared medically fit.
00:36However, she said Khan repeatedly alleged that he had been tortured during his imprisonment, an accusation that has drawn further
00:43attention to his detention.
00:45Khan has been imprisoned since August 2023 and maintains that the cases against him are politically motivated, while the government
00:52rejects that claim.
00:53His lawyers say his health has deteriorated in prison and the division in his right eye has significantly declined.
